Listers, I would like to say that the postings as of late concerning Canon users as zealots is not only a waste of bandwidth but also bordering on being downright offensive. I was keeping my mouth shut hoping that this "subject" would go away but because of Richard Scherrer's last posting I had to put my .02 in. I don't know what gives anyone the right to berate anyone because of their choice of camera systems. This is not only childish but incredibly counterproductive. I also take personal offense to these irresponsible comments being a former Canon user and possibly one again in the future. Ironically, I feel the same now shooting Nikon that I did shooting Canon. My pictures aren't any better and they sure as hell aren't any worse. The bottom line is this: it's just a camera! If you don't like it, don't buy it. But give us all who subscribe to this list for information and fun a break. If you want to call people names and spread around misinformation please go somewhere else.
