From: Quang-Tuan Luong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Nikon AND Canon [v04.n258/2] Message: 2 "After all these years of watching enviously some of the C developments (from which N learned enough that with the F100 for the first time since the N8008, of two competing bodies the N wins imo), I am going to try to use both systems to exploit the best lenses and features of each. For me this means IS and TSE lenses which are clearly missing in N. For other lenses, the choice is less clear, though 17-35 (I know the N 20-35 might be slighly better, but its not 17), 70-210 (I found N 80-200 to be bigger and heavier). This way I won't have to miss my Nikons ! After all, why one should be stuck with one system ? the only real investment is an EOS body (I would have bought the lenses in the N line if they existed anyway), and even the cheap EOS are good. I hope that won't be more confusing than using several formats, which I do already. Do other people on this list use C equipment as well ?" Tuan I have an EOS Rebel G along with my Nikons and find it a very fine point and shoot camera, although a little large. It's great for snapshots and my wife uses it a lot when she ventures out without me. I also have an EOS to Nikon adapter and can use all the Nikkors on it. Non AI, AI, AF, all of them in aperature priority mode. Something my 6006's can't do. It will even fire off my SB26 in manual mode. Dave Faulkner Maine, USA
