Canon 5D mk2 on it's way

[Doninoz]

I honestly think there is some serious self justification of camera purchase going on, happens everytime someone suggests the 5D2 is not gods gift to mankind. sigh. Hopefully Gabby has learnt something anyway.

Not at all...only trying to balance the view for those who are looking on. As I said, I have both cameras so don't want to justify either, just use them to take good photos!

In fact,when I first started in photography in the early seventies, I had a Nikon F2 Photomic with a motor drive which was a manual focus camera but I was able to take plenty of Aussie Rules Football photos as a press photographer (nikkor 600mm F4)! Never had an issue with out of focus aerial/action shots. Also I remember taking some pretty good photos of plovers and magpies in flight swooping me and they were also very sharp images...again with the motor drive in action.
