Used to be that the needs of the Professional were defined by the extra features of the Canon cameras. Now, however, even the Digital Rebel XTi might be a handy extra to have.
Reading about Large Format cameras, especially 4x5, which seem to be selling well, some great photographers use Tachihara's at just $700. One guy has several so, if one is damaged, so what! Others do the same LF photography for $4,000 more! Aren't we now in that positon with Canon DSLR's and fine lenses?
So should we be splitting up the discussions, 1D series v. the rest? After all, take the 20D or 30D, with that extra reach, all ther way down the aisle in a wedding! Your 70-200 now frames the couple, now married, as they return from the Chuppah/alter/justice of the peace! Does anyone in fact use these x 1.6 cameras for professional weddings?
At this time, we are a reasonably sized group, so what do you think, one of two Canon fora? We still have, after all, moderators on hand to move posts away!
