Canon or Nikon?

[JacaRanda]

I went for Canon. No matter which way it's spelled, the pronunciation is usually the same. Canon/Cannon whatever! The sales reps had me confused with Knee-Con or Nigh-Con or Nick-Con. (((I almost took offense to Nick-Con)))

I am easily distracted and I like turkey bacon. Those saved calories go to my Sam Adams, Sierra Nevada, or most any IPA.

Lies! Nothing is worth switching to turkey bacon. Not even a night of passion (2 mins) with that latin woman from Modern Family.

Canon DOMINATES, and I mean DOMINATES, the serious market for photocopiers. Canon makes a damned fine photocopier--now THAT cannot be disputed!!!! Plain paper, B&W, or color, Canon photocopiers ROCK! Canon photocopiers make secretaries, temps, interns, executive assistants, and mailroom clerks worldwide weak in the knees. Nikon on the other hand is not a computer electronics company, unlike the majority of other Japanese companies that sell a few cameras. Nikon is different--they are the last remaining "imaging" company in the camera business in Japan. Sony and Panasonic,for example, make some damned nice clock radios.

So are you saying that Nikon hasn't evolved, is losing market share, and is becoming a dinosaur?

Being a newbie, I went with a Canon because I've never heard of Nikon. What, is it some kind of gray market camera?
:mrgreen:

Spoken like a true NOOB!

But should I buy my Canon/Nikon from a Democrat or Republican, and should I process those files on a Mac or PC?

(Biased, passionate answers only please).

I bought mine from the Pope.. he even blessed it! (with bacon of course!)

You mean you aren't using a Nikon? Those shots came from a CANON? WOW... you must be good... you would have to be... lol!

Pleasing yourself? Taking lessons from Runnah or something?

TPF adrenaline rush... it's like running into a cave full of hibernating grizzlies and punching one in the face to see what happens... you have to drop the bomb then get clear of the resulting frenzy. Lol

CGibson has anyone told you that you are such an adorable little puffer fish?

It's pretty amazing that you've learned to use a keyboard and post here. It must be hard to type with such short fins.

It depends on whether or not you're driving a Ford or a Chevy
