Tom W, I don't doubt for one minute that you are correct and the Canon Reps are wrong.
If you've seen the last few reps we've had come through here, (3 different ones in 4 years!), you would know what I mean. I pretty much take what they say with a grain of salt. Even if their stories agreed with eachother, that could have been the fault of whoever told them their information at their Rep meeting.
Unfortunately, living in Florida, we often get the "I don't know, I don't care" type mentality from some of these reps, not just Canon reps mind you, but most reps in general.
It kind of sucks, if you know what I mean. That's why I am now trying to get better information on my own through these forums and from knowledgeable photographers like you and others here!

Well, you've come to the right place. There's tons of information here, put forth by many people that have strong backgrounds in the various areas of photography.
BTW, what part of Central Fla are you in? I've got quite a bit of family in Clermont, Windermere, and over in Wesley Chapel near I-75 and Route 52.
