Complaints complaints
Both Nikon and Canon have introduced two superb professional cameras: The Canon 4DIV and the Nikon D3X. Both are fast, with great focusing abilities and with great low noise characteristics. Personally they offer more than anyone can use. Yet, from looking at blogs, the complaining has already begun. Everyone is hoping for the perfect camera. But if they ever got it what would they do. I believe that many of these complainers do not ever hope to buy either of these cameras but, nevertheless, enjoy this completely inane game. They need a life. Too many tech nerds out there busily comparing spec sheets and really never taking photos. Some have complained a bout AF and some have even asked how can one ever take sports photos with out it. Maybe they are very young, naive or pathetically uninformed. Do they really think that before AF there wasn't sports photography? I used to shoot college basket ball and soccer with a Nikon F without the motor drive and got many great shots. Some people are absolutely spoiled; always looking for a "better" camera. If they cannot take great photos with the current crop of cameras, they should take up stamp collecting. Gee, what bores.
