I'm literally pulled over other side of the road making this post. I haven't had time to check this info out. Have at her.
Isn't USB internet great? The iPad would have actually been handy right now. :)
thanks ARM

Imagine that, some time in the future Canon will have announced two new cameras!
so they can give a chance for the retailers to sell and rip off the remaining outdated camera body versions to the newbie consumers at “Best or Worst Buys.”
wow, have a look on wikipedia, search ‘sarcasm’.
OK…obviously you use you camera equipment different than me, and that’s OK….but it is your negative tone, a real lack of imagination, and closed mindedness……..I will try to educate you …..but it is up to you, I can only lead you to the water……..page 224 of the 1D4 manual…you can download it from the Canon site…..C.Fn III-11 – Switch to registered AF Point…..read it for yourself….I have no more time for this.
True, but only at a basic level, a better camera will give you better chances to get the shot you want. If not i’d always use my camera phone.
I want better low light shots, so ISO12800/25600 will be better than my ISO1600 400D, this will give me brighter shots, focused quicker, taken at higher shutter speeds or smaller apetures.
More focus points = better, faster auto focus decisions.
Better processor = faster shot decisions, metering and transfer speed.
Combine this with a faster focussing lens and better in focus action shots are possible.
More metering types = better colour and exposure.
More megaPixels = potentially bigger prints or more generous crops if ISO is really improved along with pixels.
Addons – Video, Spirit level, GPS etc. all add to what becomes possible.
So, if used well, a better tool will do a good job in more scenarios than a simple one.
Presently, i’m sometimes a better photographer than my camera allows, and sometimes my camera is a better tool than me. I want the camera to always be better than me so that it restricts my shots less often.
