Er, well, I don't know about that. I agree that fast focusing is useful,
but thinking seems rather more important to me.

By the way, my only reason for recommending Canon was its 1.6x cropping
factor (vs. 1.5x on comparable Nikon bodies). Personally, I'd prefer to
use a Nikon D70s or D200 any day, but the $0 price-tag on my Canon D30
was hard to argue with.
