I agree that digital will be taking over sooner or later. But, personally, I wouldn't worry about the obsolescence of the EF lens line. There are a lot of EF lenses out there, and Canon probably wouldn't just abandon them (but didn't people say the same thing about FD lenses? ;-)
Seriously though, to an amateur like me, even if Canon went to a new lens format, there is still a large second-hand market for EF lenses. Plus your EF lenses won't all of a sudden stop working the second Canon comes out with a different lens format. I wouldn't hesistate to buy new EF lenses, were I to have the money to do so. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
