I just saw this today on Gizmodo.com. Alton uses a Canon EF.

Thanks for the link.

Beautiful EF! I'd love to add one in that condition to my collection of FD gear.

I own, and have owned, a lot of high end cameras (and low end ones too<g>), but I truly do not believe any other camera handles as nicely as the EF. Especially with the speed dial that sits over the front edge of the body. The Leica M5 had this and people criticized it, but I like the way it worked too.

I love that feature of the EF. It's extremely well-built and the film winder is more smooth and solid than any other I've felt before. Even mine which has been heavily used and brassed works amazingly.

I have one, and although it was made in 1974, thirty four years ago, I bet it will be still going when the current crop of digital SLR s are forgotten about and in the landfill.
