TPF Noob!
In no way am I attempting to spawn a heated Nikon vs. Canon discussion with this thread, but Im curious
Has anyone looked into reliability issues with either of these brands?
A friend of mine, who is a die-hard Canon shooter, has had some of the worst luck with Canon film bodies. He has gone through two bodies in the past 8 months The first camera had a film transport problem (only advancing film 2/3rd frame). His second Canon has developed a sticky shutter. Im not sure of the models, but I do know they are not entry level, nor are they pro Somewhere in between, pro-sumer I would guess.
Ive used Nikon bodies for years, both film and digital and have never experienced any trouble whatsoever. It makes me wonder if Canon has a quality issue.
Thoughts?
