<p>"i'm more upset that they havnt released a body that can compete with nikon's d3 than their lens lineup.<br /> time to get a body out that has good iso performance.. all the ones they have out now kind of sux compared to nikons.<br /> and what is with the 9 AF points still, nikons have 51 points in their prosumer bodies already, time to step up canon!"</p>

<p>Do you enjoy quality or quantities ?. Is there anything you can't do with 9 points AF ?</p>

<p>Even on more expensive camera than 5D Mark II<br>

"My photo staff at the Green Bay Press-Gazette was given all brand new Nikon to test out at the game (and possibly the Super Bowl) by Nikon Professional Services. Unfortunately, all the beautiful D3 cameras failed the cold test. Upon kickoff I realized that NEITHER of my D3 camera bodies were working. I had one driving a 400mm lens and the other on my 80-200mm lens. Both cameras starting flashing “err” messages and when they would fire they would fire black images. Some of the images were half-black…similar to when you sync your flash at too high of a shutter speed and part of the shutter curtain casts a shadow on your image"<br>

<p>Check this out....this for Nikon trolls and fanboys only...</p>
