I got that cap! The AF is good!I can't dare to imagine a new body cap. Sounds like science fiction, I almost scared myself....
Nobody has mentioned the Lens Bling caps for the other end of your lens.
Canon recently released a new body cap a.k.a. 40mm STM
the plot of a movie doesn't improve on a 1080 tv vs a 720 tv... a good movie is still a good movie whether you can see each hair strand or not...True, but stills and movies are different species. One can stare at a still for a looooooooooooong time. Hence the attributes of a still are way different. You can get away with JPEG artifact like things in a movie scene but not in a still - my opinion...
ROFL!What a might stroke that was tooCanon, if you are listening there are lots of catch up ....were not are. Now Canon stroke back with the mighty caps
Who knows? Maybe canon will deliver a death blow with NEW REAR LENS CAPS!
I actually have a bluray burner. I'll probably start backing up every handful of sessions to a disk and remove them from HDD space.my 2c - just go for it. There is one one graceful way to get into a pool - dive!
Newegg has a 50 pack for $42 at the moment. That's 1250 GB of space not prone to electronic or hardware failure.
rpt, what you've described is my goal. I was going to wait until the glory of full-frame to start RAW, but something tells me I should get used to it before that day comes. I always want to get the absolute best out of the equipment I have, so I'm sure my days to come will be full of RAW files.

Thank you all for the overwhelming amount of responses!Great! I just started shooting RAW after I got the 5D3. Till then It was all JPG. Once I tasted blood - er - the power of editing RAW, I have stopped shooting JPG. Yes, it is a bit more work but I think it is worth it. I shoot a lot of impromptu shots and so nailing everything is not always possible. With the 5D3 I have shot a lot of shots with ISO >= 6400. These would be very difficult to edit as JPG...
Maybe I should preface my situation a bit: I call myself a "professional" because I once read if I want to actually be a professional I should act like one. I know there is a massive difference between the seasoned professional who takes photos in his sleep and me, someone who has one or two sessions every other weekend and only six weddings planned for next year so far (which I think is great for having started this business in June). Simply because I'm not shooting seven days a week though, doesn't mean I can't be providing a professional service where I strive to give my clients the best product that I can and learn as much as I can to better myself.
Also, when I typed "convinced" I really meant "I've already decided to take the plunge but would still appreciate personal experience."
I greatly appreciate the advice about using LR with RAW. I tend to push exposure a lot for my own style and to accommodate changing light situations as much of what I do is outdoors. In that sense, I'm sure I'll notice the benefits immediately. I'm sure I'll also notice that I'll be needing a new HDD pretty soon, but that's a minimal cost compared to a new camera which I'm already saving for.
I shot an engagement session this morning entirely in RAW. Perhaps this will convert me for life.
The 18-135 kit is on flipkart and the 18-55 kit is there on ebay.in...But non of the Online stores in India have it in stock for 2-3 weeks now.Jules, I want whatever you are smoking! Btw 550D is available both on flipkart and eBay.in. Where did you look?
This Kit is out of stock "Canon EOS 550D SLR ( Kit (EF S18-55 IS II) Lens)" on flipkart and indiatimeshopping
That's not even taking Lossy to Lossy conversions into account (which degrades quality each time).+1
IE, Take a JPEG and edit it, save it to another JPEG - this is significantly more damaging to the file than if you opened the RAW file and exported a JPEG from there.
9 pages and counting!Naturally! This is a killer product

Gary's shots always are.
Outstanding!1Dx

Oh yes! Besides when you shoot with the cap on, you get darker blacks than with the Nikon cameras with Sony sensors and Nikon caps. I think the Nikon think tank is flummoxed by this surprising and brilliant Canon strategy! They are wondering what Canon will come up with next!Canon releases the EOS M. It gets 3-4 pages of conversation.They are their latest and greatest product
Canon releases new lens caps. Almost 10 pages of controversy.
Whaaaaaaaat?!
White Eyed Buzzard......................Gir National Park, India.Nice! With you 100-400?
