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*
