Well, one thing I know is that both Canon and Nikon and indeed all the other big players produce superb cameras, and we are lucky to have such a great choice of superb equipment. It strange how since the "digital revolution" has arrived there has been this brand name war thing going on.I cant...

ROFL :lol:

Sorry mate, I misunderstood your post and opened my gob as usual. (big foot enters big mouth) I'll get me coat.. :coat:

The monkey shot hasn't been sharpened.What would I achieve by sharpening it? :shrug: SIGH...
