LOL! It was taking too long already :D


Photography is about GEAR and not talent or practice. Practice won't make you a better photographer. Expensive equipment will. =D

OMG these posts are starting already.

I should avoid this forum the next few days.. Even if this one is a joke, they have already begun elsewhere.

Fear not, I believe Teamspeed will be contributing to this thread as soon as the 1D X is made available. And I say this with the utmost respect to TS since I like his no-fuss, no-bias comparisons. :D

Trying to start comparisons between existing cameras and those that have yet to even be released should be a ban-able offense...

Which one would I get? If we are in fantasy land, the 1D x. In reality, none of them, I'd keep my 60D :)

My 5D2 and 7D are totally different cameras for different purposes. I can not overcome how much of a difference I can see in IQ between 5D2 and 7D, but man, the 7D has some uber cool features. This 1Dx, it does it all, but unfortunately, I can not afford it, not even in my dreams...

I'd get the 7D. It has the same number of megapixels and is a lot cheaper.
