The 24/2.8 is even more beyond me. I liked the classic version for it\'s price performance ratio, but it wasn\'t a top secret that this was one of the least sold EF lenses because of all of the overlap with other 24 lenses in the bag of the enthusiast photographers.


But to get crisp edge to edge landscape on high MP FF you have to go to a wide prime now at like $1600+ so now they lowered the entry to that to $850 list (less in stores before long). So is that bad?


I made my point clear enough with my comments at the introduction of the 1Dx already. The next disappointment for a lot of EOS adapts is around the corner. Most of you know what I am hinting at.


oh no.... me thinks this means those of us who have been confident that the specs are 30MP,6fps,7D+ AF cam are wrong and the CR rumors is closer and yet with too high body specs, the 7.5fps being too many and the 1DX AF being too much to match reality

I fear a blood bath in the forums soon....

although then again it may just be that you wanted:

\"We want cameras with built in GPS. We want social media connectors in the camera. We want better software as an extension of our cameras and other photographic instruments. We want new ergonomics, radical redesigns. We want full frame compacts. We want more compact D-SLRs, it can be done without losing grip and ergonomics (Olympus did it in the 70-ies to bulky film SLRs). There is so much to be done. There is enough for a white paper on
the next decade. We want more creativity in camera and lens design.\"

this sort of stuff which it will lack.
