[quote user="Daniel Browning"] [quote user="Colin500"]I will try using live-view to achieve accurate manual focus, and exactly where I want it...[/quote] I think you'll be amazed by how much more accurate your focus is with 10X live view than any other method (autofocus, OVF, anything). The problem, right now, is the handheld

Although I haven't made the purchase yet, I too have chosen the 24-70. This does not mean that I would necessarily recommend it for everyone, however I can share how I arrived at the conclusion: On several occasions when I used my 18-55 kit-lens I consciously limited myself to the 24+ zoom range.

[quote user="lcnewkirk"] After reading this post and hearing all of the Nikon talk, I thought I'd share my Canon v Nikon customer service experiences. [...] [/quote] Well, then you were lucky.

[quote user="Daniel Browning"] [quote user="Colin500"]on Bryan's 7D review page here, in particular of the "KODAK Color Control Patches", and to me the 7D looks about as good (bad) as the 50D/500D[/quote] I suggest clicking the links and doing an A/B comparison in different browser tabs to really see how much better

[quote user="iND"] I think you are asking why are there not strobes or flashes with built in receivers? [/quote] Sorry, perhaps my post was a little chaotic... Primary question: Why no multi-channel radio-remotes that allow per-channel remote manual settings of flash power. Secondary question: Why not the above radio-receiver integrated into

Thanks for the elaborate answer! And seeing that my shots at f/1.8 (the largest that I currently have) are often not on focus, presumably because focus-and-recompose just doesn't work with a very shallow DOF, I will try using live-view to achieve accurate manual focus, and exactly where I want it...
