p.2 #1 · Where is Canon 60D?

Sometimes I shoot 6-8 wedding in a week-end,I should become a crazy guy for long time if I had used RAW, no time for such kind of work,and I can postprocess the Jpegs very well in cs2,women love the portraits with nice skin and repaired nose and stuff,etc.

NEVER!

Now that 50D is here, all of a sudden my 40D is junk and just doesn't seems to take good photos anymore, I'm losing all my clients to the photog next door who just pre-order the 50D from local camera store, i'm losing sleep every night and can't stop thinking about how bad my 40D perform anymore. I must have the latest and greatest, give me 60D right now....not 18mo later, so I can get my clients back and take great photos again!! I can't do without the latest and greatest if you know what i mean, with the 60D I can be the world greatest photographer again.

But Dean, I like your posts. Congrats on 4K

Mine's full, by the way.

I didn't even notice the 4K mark - thanks. So, there's a limit to how many whiners we can use the "hide me" button on?

That is what I was saying... If you use the in-camera high ISO NR when shooting JPEG's, you will probably get usable results. Although I doubt the 50D will be one stop better regarding noise levels than the 30D, the in-camera high ISO NR should be better. I think that if you compare a ISO 1600 and ISO 3200 unprocessed RAW file from a 30D and 50D, you will not notice much difference. Maybe the 30D RAW file will look even better...

My friend you are full of assumptions about the new canon cameras (all negative) Why don’t you wait until we have them in hand ( or at least a real test) - What is your purpose? I THINK you may have a very large serving of crow coming-
Maybe the 5DMII will surpass your 1DsM3 IQ. ha

Can't we just go back to the days of a body coming out every 3-5 years.

If you have stopped why you here? just a silly little question and myself I love my 30D, 40D and want the 50D these are great camera maybe not for some of the snobs in here that think you must own a MKIII to take good shots. They will never come out with the perfect camera because they want us to upgrade every year. They just add enough good stuff to make you interested.

Hey OP how's the sale of your 100-400 going?

I needed to blow off some steam, so to speak.

I've been told, that I have a DRY SENSE OF HUMOR

I'm guilty of doing the upgrade thing myself, except every body I have owned, has been used: 20D, 30D, 40D,.. 5D, I will probably buy a 5DII, once the price has fallen or another 5D, & I love FF.... 1D2, 1D2N, replace the N's, with a 1D3N/4, whenever I'm not poor

... Then one day, when I am old & have money to spare, I will buy an H3D Body, and travel the world on my bicycle

Unfortunately, currently speaking, I'm a poor college student, and buy 90% of my gear off the B&S boards, after it has depreciated for several years.

Indeed.

I suppose people compensate with their wallets, much like short fat bald men drive lifted gas guzzling SUV's with obnoxiously loud tail pipes - Yes, you need attention, we get it.

Maybe they should look at some photo history books and feel bad (or maybe even inspired?!?) comparing their $10k+ trail of cameras to what some people shot on film with cameras that lacked auto focus and meters.

Don't get me wrong, if you get your jollies by geeking out and pixel peeping and "getting the best image quality" that you can afford for your candid shots of your dog running around in the grass and your cousins ugly baby, take joy from the wads of cash you are giving to Canon. I love you for it, it means someday, maybe in a few years, when my camera can no longer be repaired, they'll have enough of your money for R&D to make more great cameras.

The message is, enjoy photography. Photography is great. Art is great. Expression is great. Memories are great.

But if your enjoyment stems for spending vast amounts of money on the latest greatest gizmo, maybe take up a new hobby, like, seeing how many starving childen in Africa you can feed. It will be much more rewarding. Maybe you can send me a $1 pinhole camera and discover something amazing in them.

Rant mode off.

Cheers,
Thomas

Thank you, I think? I don't understand the 100-400 comment though, I've never used it

. But a compliment to my huevos is welcome.

Cheers to you, trenchmonkey,

hmm....whatever, this evening I have lost my photography skill and forgot how to take picture, I can't seems to find the shutter button so I start punching my camera, it made a few click click click noise and all pictures came out severely under-exposed or completely blown, so I refuse to take any more snapshot until I can get my hand on the 60D, I don't care that you don't care, I want my 60D RIGHT NOW so I can kicks ass in photography again!!!

People are really never satisfied huh? I am betting when the 60D comes out someone will be asking for a 70D.

Go get a 40D now and post some shots in the forums above.

You don't remember Canon making a D60?

Life was better with the old D60 - slow, yes. But, beautiful pics - 6 megapixels was good enough and I got some really satisfying photos from it. Ahh .. then the upgrade bug bit me. And now I have become a gearhead.

Un-troll me quick!

I was talking about the Canon D60.

I took the OP and subsequent posts by yauyi to be tongue in cheek and humorous. The fact that people are actually getting bent out of shape over such a post is mildly amusing as well.
