Thinking of buying daughter a camera for birthday...

When I went to a DSLR, the fact that none of my Canon lenses would fit the

gave her
my digital P&S, also a Nikon.



The Canon "EF" and "EF-S" lenses fit the Canon DSLRs. The lenses for the
"crop" Canon DSLRs, however, don't work properly opticaly on a
full-frame Canon SLR or DSLR.

The DSLR lines of Canon and Nikon are very competitive.

I've been looking at the canon T2i for a bit and now the T3i.
Trouble is...you ask yourself if it might be better to spend a couple more
dollars and get the 60D.
When you settle on that cost point...the camera guys then try to convince
you to get something with a metal body.... so we arrive at the 7D.
Trouble is... that 7D with a good lens and taxes soars up to the $2k mark.
I then back off and start the whole process again.

Really Harry, it appears you have been having the same problem for about
9 years.

Thanks, that kind of clinches it. What a lame assed putz with
nothing better to do than make up internet personas that agree with
him.


A pair of putzes...w'hine and bertie the birther. Everyone I know over
40 had a Brownie camera at some point in their lives. I had a Hawkeye
Brownie or Brownie Hawkeye and several others. I also owned a Chevy...I
wonder if anyone else did.

Crikey, Bertie the failed marine and w'hine the corporate apologist. No
wonder this country is going down the toilet.


I don't have to create sock puppets on the Internet to expand my circle
of friends.
