    What do YOU shoot with?

    I was just wondering what most people on this site shoots with now-a-days.

    Panasonic here. Currently working with an FZ-7, but I have a 350D on order with a Canon EF 75-300mm and 24-70mm. My birthday gift to myself. :)

    I'm a year or so behind you :) I've got a Panasonic FZ50, which I'm quite happy with right now, but I'll probably be itching for a DSLR around 2008 bonus time.

    Re: What do YOU shoot with?

    Quick question to the admins- what happened to the other votes it was at around 16 before?
    "Let's see how quick this turns into a Canon/Nikon debate" I don't see to many votes up there for that one lol
    But really if you feel that this will turn into a nikon/canon debate feel free to take it down, I had no intension of it turning into that.

    YOU ASKED FOR IT :borat: Plus, we know who won already! ;)

    Seriously, Nikon is more the traditional were is Canon is the newer lower cost, mass produced
    to turn soccer moms turn into want to be photographers. They introduced the SLR for non-
    professional use. Nikon was always the "quality" camera like Minolta but hat to lower its
    prices and build quality to match. I think you will find that there are more Canon's 5:1 at the
    least! If you look at just professionals, it seems more like 1:1 to C vs N.

    P.S. Are just upset that you are past your 14 day return policy??? :borat:

    I'm curious about that too. I voted last night, looked again today and it seemed to indicate I hadn't voted, so I did again.

    Did you check your PM? No worries.

    Regarding 16 votes, not sure what about the other votes.
    ciao
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Re: What do YOU shoot with?

    Here's what I don't get about the Canon-Nikon flame war: It doesn't really matter! Both companies make a viable yet somewhat distinct product, and with either one you're going to get a good camera and lenses. (When I decide to buy a DSLR, I'll start a flame war thread :borat:) It's not like, say, emacs vs. vi, where they both do essentially the same thing but emacs does it better.

    But when buying a DSLR, your choice is simple. For my most recent camera purchase, I looked at 8 different cameras from 4 different manufacturers, all of which were in a similar price range, and the pocket-size P&S (not to be confused with POS) market is even more crowded...

    True, the turn out of the picture depends on the photographer not the camera.
