B+W XS-Pro. No vignetting when stacked with XS-Pro KSM C-POL on 17mm (EF-S 17-55).

And why do programmers always get Christmas and Halloween mixed up? Because 25 DEC = 31 OCT.

Why not just get the new T4i?

- smaller buffer,
- shorter battery life,
- smaller grip,
- no back wheel,
- pentamirror,
- slower max shutter,
- no top lcd,
- no kelvin white balance,
- smaller range of exposure bracketing,
- no custom mode on selector knob,
- wider center/spot metering points,
- slower flash sync speed,
- no magic lantern,
- and so on...

Why are the prices for Canons newest releases including the 650D well above what the exchange rate would dictate?

Because we (european suckers) are willing to pay these insane prices.

Shouldn't someone from The World's Billionaires list be more interested in saving those elephants?
