Canon Rumors announced a possible 35mm f/1.4L II and 24-70 f/2.8L II with a January 3, 2012 release. Anyone thinking of jumping ship early on their old equipment and hoping for these releases?

Also forgot to mention a 5D MK2 price drop at B&H to $2039 through this link: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search...ch=yes/BI/4906
Really contemplating selling early for the 24-70 II... Argh. ![]() |

Hey, so quick question for you guys.
What camera would you recommend to a person who is taking more of an interest in photography? Yes, I am asking for myself. I have a "pocket" digital camera but I would like to step my game up, if you know what I mean. |

I bought a D3100 for my first DSLR. I'm still trying to learn the ins and out of photography before I step into something better. I've seen shots here from the D5100 and the shots look great. I read that the sensor is the same sensor as in the D7000. If I had to pick a beginner DSLR now, it would be between the Nikon D5100 and the Canon T3i.

There's no clear advantage between Nikon and Canon, IMHO, with both being good. Sony and Pentax are very good also, but you get lens-limited if you get really serious. Canon has the widest selection of super-teles, but, other than that, there's no really clear advantage. Below super-tele ranges, all of the four brands mentioned have good lens selection at "competitive" prices. Dave

Nikon advantages: Better high ISO performance. Broader lens range, since you can use just about any lens from 1959 on. I think Nikon has better ergo's too, but that is my opinion. Can't really go wrong with either.

Canon's full-frame high-ISO performance gives up nothing to Nikon and the 1D-X may well surpass Nikon in this regard. In the crop sensors Canon favors detail over noise. If you're cropping a crop sensor image, then Canon generally wins in detail, Nikon wins in noise. Take your pick, you can't have both, yet. Expose Right, my mantra. ![]() Dave

Was reading up on some MF addicts out there. Pretty good arguments. nice then about some of the higher end canon lenses, you can autofocus them, and then fine tune them by hand without hurting any of the gear inside, unlike the lower end lenses. |
