I own both the 5DMkII and the 7D. I just love the capability of going both extreme wide and and medium telephoto by carrying both camera bodies with me. Just a few zoom lenses (like the 16-35, 28-70, and 70-200) afford a tremendous versatility in shot selection. The 7D is a clear winner for action photography at about twice the fps as the 5DMkII and is $1000 less than the 5DMkII. The 5DMkII is a clear winner for wide angle photography and high ISO images. If I'm going to carry just one body, it is usually the 7D because I tend to favor telephoto shots. BTW, this thread is both interesting and informative.

Nice work, guys. Wilson, did you see the image that I posted of us in Seattle? It was nice meeting you. I'll send you a link to some of my Vancouver/Alaska/Seattle images from my Picasa Webalbums.

This is just a note to alert other members that if you receive an

unsually large number of ratings very quickly from the rate recent

gallery, you might be the victim of a robot. Today, I submitted a

photo that received 20 ratings within about 2 hours. And there were

14 ratings from the rate recent gallery. It didn't stop at 10, as is

the usual case. Since the ratings are now anonymous from the rate

recent, one can't investigate the ratings.

 

Sure enough, a robot had rated my image. I want to thank PN admin

for taking such quick action in deleting the bogus 9 ratings my

image received from the rate recent gallery. If a robot rated my

image, I'm sure it rated many others who were in the gallery at the

same time as me. A disadvantage to the anonymity of the rate recent

gallery is that only the PN admin can investigate possible abuse.

This just adds to their administrative burden which, I'm sure, is

time consuming enough as it is. Anyway, I again applaud Jeremy and

the others who diligently police the site for abuse.

I agree, Brian. You should leave this thread up. It is a good demonstration of the rules and what can get you kicked off PN. I must say that this thread is a real shocker to me.

I also was able to rate my own photo, Victoria Flowers and Waterfall. I tried removing the rating but I couldn't. Please remove my self rating.

 

Thanks
