Don't sell yourself short. ;)

Well, I do try, lol. Funny doesn't come naturally to me. I have to make a conscious effort. :)

They were being cordial at first. Like any new relationship it takes time to see the true colors :lol:

I can't imagine what kind of response you'd get at Nikonians if you pulled a similar stunt there!

Following the critically acclaimed 2007 drama, "There Will Be Blood", comes a sequel unlike any sequel you've ever seen.

There Will Be Pie

Starring Neeko RainbowPie and KC LemonPie.

There will be unicorns.
There will be double-rainbows, all the way.
And, oh yes, there will be pie!


;):lol:

that is awesome. as awesome as unicorn pie.

So I think i started a big argument over at Pentax. They are going at it with the 7D. The majority have said its the right move. However, the fanboys have come out!

Are there no other Canon regional offices/service centers in Canada than in Mississauga? That is somewhat inconvenient, one service center for the entire country. :confused:

I'm lucky to be 5 minutes away from a Canon center! But I'm bummed that sensor cleaning is no longer free. They charge $30 now. :(

There used to be a Canon service center in Calgary, AB., but Canon in all there wisdom shut it down :confused:. Now there is just the one in Missassauga, ON.

Marry a photographer who is on the Canon side too and you're set, buddy.

hahaha.. better buy Nikon then, its lenses comes with a gold ring :D

AmandaMarie wrote in post #11033695 (external link)
mine is on the nikon side because of stealthy. :rolleyes:

yeah.. you're lucky :D

krepta wrote in post #11033704 (external link)
Wait, Adrian made Scott switch? But Adrian was Canon not that long ago! Did they switch around the same time?

it was Scott who convinced Adrian, Adrian just switched to Nikon about a month or a few weeks before I did

It's good to see somebody in there called out all the crazies on D700 comparisons to the k-x...like I said, some Pentax users are lost in the sauce! ;)

hehe yeah somebody is comparing the D700 to the 7D also and to their own little camera... and one guy even goes as bold as this

I believe its pretty close to the Kx.

Personally I wouldn't get a 7D for low light specifically, but for resolution and sheer performance(AF and continuous)... the 7D is simply amazing! It's the only camera that buries the D700 and matches the D3x in terms of resolving power. It also has amazing red channel performance from RAW(better than the D700) and the ability to pull detail like crazy.

Anyways, I really don't know much about Canon glass, but if I was in the market for an above average camera, this would definitely be on the top of my list.

I would say comparable, but definitely does not bury the D700 in any way... IMHO/AFAIK

and somebody in there is like us....and answered this:

While I can understand your claim about the K-x holding its own against the 7D, to say that it holds its own against a full frame D700, for example? Either the folks youre going with are really poor users of their cams, or it's just way too much exaggeration...

Saying the 7d out resolves the d3x is beyond ignorant.
