"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

For a brief instant I imagined myself moving home to Pentax. The reason I ended up over here was partially for the full frame option. (I still have not bought a 5D)

Then I noticed the date....

Funny, I fell as well and on the third. I have a K5 and verious lenses but moved over to a 5Dmk11 for a few reasons I could not get around. I still love my K5 and that almost had me wondering. Well I still have the K5 as a second camera and the K20 as a third but love the 5D2. Of course Canon came out with the 5D3 about 4 months after I bought the 5D2...you can go crazy trying to keep up....I am very good for now with what I have.

Sad thing is, they could actually make that camera, and it would be good :(

Though I'm not sure about the AF stuff, no idea what it means if it even means anything, given that its a joke.

Sadly it would just have a load of QC issues and poor autofocus...
