DocFrankenstein said:No reason to call a person slow witted just because they know what camera they want. I think the brighter viewfinder, partial metering and low ISO alone is worth it. You've ever compared rebel's dimhole to a decent viewfinder of an SLR?
BTW: I took the liberty of looking through your "photojournalist" photos and they honestly suck. No concept of composition, no impact... you don't even get close enough to the subject most of the time.
So you're not quite qualified to call anyone slow-witted just because they don't drop on their ass when they see your rebel.
Feel free to prove me wrong by posting kickass pics of that family in the park.
Let's refrain from personal attacks, please. This is an opinion from one person on the forum. If you have a different opinion, it's okay to share with the rest of us but going onto someone's site and critisizing their work is completely uncalled for.
