The 60D may be a plastic piece of poo poo upgrade if you owned a 50D but it feels like a pretty solid upgrade if you owned a Rebel.

Canon's plan for camera bodies seems to defy logic but as long as there's good bodies and I can take good pictures I don't really give a poo poo. Life's too short to worry about technology only getting incremental upgrades.

Canon lenses would be good values if there wasn't almost always an option from a different manufacture with equal or better performance for a fraction of the cost.
Is there a list of the "better than Canon" lens options? It feels like a list that somebody would make.

The article is like 90% stupid bullshit and 10% explaining why the lens allows him to get better shots, it's amazing.

"Full frame" is for noobs. Get a digital medium format Phase One camera, the real full frame. :smug:
My only goal in photography is to trick people into giving me enough money that I can buy one of these and make prints taller than I am.

Photography the noblest of arts.

The obvious answer is a Canon PowerGlove.

I bought Canon poo poo because I once owned a Canon printer. I wonder how much of Canon's market share is made up of people as lazy as me.

The sun, through a Hydrogen alpha filtered solar telescope onto my 550D, enhanced and colour corrected in Lightroom 4.
This is cool! You should make that thread.

If you have the extra money a 50D wouldn't be a bad call. The XXDs feel better in the hands than a Rebel. Also there's probably some nice features.

I used to think "man photographers are full of such bullshit they just want to buy fancier cameras" but no some of the stuff people say is true.

I regularly drop my car keys and stub my toes on my own furniture, a lens hood is "for my own good".

No, I mean people keep capitalizing it.
Because "raw" is a real word unlike jpg or gif which are easily read even when you don't capitalize them.

Or maybe it's just that street photography is so popular that photogs are picking up on the street slang where "raw" means loving without a condom.

This is why we should use DNG, which I prefer to pronounce as "dong".
