EOS Bodies - For Stills / Re: 40D vs. 6D AF

« on: May 15, 2013, 01:54:19 AM »

I am also in the same boad as you are and itching to upgrade my 4 years old 40D, only the "on-paper" inferior AF system is holding me back from pulling the trigger (and ofcourse I will have to re-plan the path for my lenses).
It will be intersting to read your experience when you make this upgrade .

Canon General / Re: It annoys me when camera phones try to take credit for professional level gear.

Most advertising is generally fake at some level or the other. True.

Here is one more example:

But I feel that everyone expect these images to be fake.
Besides I am not sure if there is any noticable IQ difference in all top of the line camera phones and if these images influence the buying decisions.

You have some great pictures there. Hopefully will have enough to buy a 5Dmk3 sometime in future.
Your pics reminded me of this photo from my last visit to KL birdpark:
