What cheeses me off!

My, you're an argumentative type Zenedis. I merely stated that the last body I purchased came with the coupler. That was a 1-series. The 1-series I had before that also had the coupler. I also have a coupler with the smaller BP-type end on it, which I thought I got with my 5D, but if you say I didn't, then fine. I couldn't remember if it was the 5D or my very first DSLR, the D30. Don't mix up the D30 with the 30D. Different cameras. I have had Canon DSLR's since 2001. I currently have six. It's no big deal. My post here was tongue-in-cheek rather a real complaint. It was a bit of fun. *removed - do not tell other members to 'lighten up' they are entitled to post their views and opinions: Admin*

s/Z/X/g;

I'm merely pointing out the facts as specified by the Canon Australia product literature, and confirmed by what I received with three Canon DSLRs I've purchased.

I also have a coupler with the smaller BP-type end on it, which I thought I got with my 5D, but if you say I didn't, then fine.

I'm not saying you didn't receive one; I'm saying that it is not an included accessory.

Don't mix up the D30 with the 30D. Different cameras.

I'm very much aware of that.

I have had Canon DSLR's since 2001. I currently have six. It's no big deal. My post here was tongue-in-cheek rather a real complaint. It was a bit of fun. Lighten-up.

Again, I'm just spelling out what is and isn't included as a standard accessory with an Australian-market Canon DSLR.

That way there can be no confusion.

[Warbler]

And, Dave, that's what I hoped this thread would be.

Hey Tim. Isn't it good to see that Aus Photography brings so much happiness that you and me are the only members with a bitch

[Mark L]

Hi Tim. You mentioned micro adjusting your lenses. That's a new concept to me. What is that all about?

Greg, I don't think the 60D has this ability, I think the 7D does kp.
googling "micro adjusting canon lens" came up with this for starters.

Lucky you Dave! My bitch ran away.

[crazymorton]

...and this is the only reason I enjoy receiving a new camera with an uncharged battery, you read the manual.

they come with a manual? will have to explore the packaging further next time

[Ezookiel]

No micro adjust on the 60D either - well not that I know of anyway.

"Lucky you. Mine's still alive."

[Warbler]

You're a bad man, Bennymiata. I was talking about my kelpie-cross.

[Altonian]

How many 1-series? Got those with my one series cameras (different shape obviously), and I've got one here from an original 5D (or maybe my D30) too. I've never had to buy one separately, so the ones I have all came in the original boxes.

I recently bought a 1dx and it would have been nice if it came with an ac coupler but it didn't. Your guna love your new 5d3!

Thanks Altonian. I can't say I've used those couplers often. It was just an observation and a throw-away line. I really did want to try a 1Dx, but I just can't justify the price yet. It's taking me a little while to get used to where everything is in the menus, but it certainly feels and sounds nice. It's also my first with movie capability and I think I might see what I can do with that at some stage. Good luck with your choice though. I am envious.
