Nikon reviews?

Am I missing something here?

Perhaps you have at last given up on the wait for Canon full-frame 1Ds, like I virtually have done. Still i'm stunned

What wait? Canon released the 1Ds in the spring of 2003. They're refreshed it twice since then. Another refresh is most likely due out soon, but so what? There are plenty of great cameras from Canon, as well as other brands.

Well, After reading all of this, I have come to the conclusion that this might be a mistake for Byan and TDP. I have enjoyed the civility of this forum for about two years now. Well, after reading this post, I guess civility has gone out the window. Though I would love to hear Bryan's comments and evaluations of Nikon gear, it isn't worth it to me to read through all of the immature, mindless rhetoric that goes with those otherwise insightful reviews.


One thing I did notice was that none of the "veteran" posters of this forum were rude or obnoxious---it seems to be only a couple of "newbies" that has brought this thread down to pathetic levels of posturing.

I'll never be able to get the latest greatest body. So, for me this photography thing is all about glass and lights. I'll never change brands because I have too much invested in a hobby that, for me will likely never support itself. It's silly to argue about differences in bodies. If one isreally that much better the other will be force to capitulate. Now, if you want to fuss about Canon needing to come out with an answer to the [url="/Reviews/Nikon-200-400mm-f-4G-AF-S-VR-II-Lens-Review.aspx]Nikon 200-400mm f/4G AF-S VR II Lens [/url]I'd have to <span style="text-decoration: line-through;"]agree(Never mind just saw the price!)...


But, watch your tone (real orperceived) as we are a happy, civilized, friendly group here and don't want to loose that.

Thanks for clearing that up???


Edit:


I seem to believe that you are in dismay that Nikon lenses are now going to be reviewed. I don't see what would have been difficult to state there.

maybe bryan is adding nikon lens reviews to the site for people that may be considering buying the converter that is available to mount nikon lenses to canon bodies......or perhaps he feels that since he has reviews for sigma, tamron, and zeiss lenses, why not add nikon lenses.......after all, nikon is canons biggest competetor (or are they?? think canikon [:P]) regardless of why bryan is adding nikon lens reviews, i look forward to reading them when he gets the reviews done.........i have always shot canon, ever since school way back in the day, but i am always reading up on nikon to see what they are bringing out. i am on nikon rumours site as much as i am on canon rumours site.


as to why bryan is adding nikon lens reviews......guess you'll have to ask him to enlighten us

Yes, it is. Brevity is one thing, but being so absent in your commentary is disruptive to the boards here.


Amongst other things, I'm not in front of a PC where I've configured RSS to follow anything. As a result, I hadn't seen the "news" posting that Bryan was beginning to post Nikon information. Just to understand what you were after, I took the time to go check. So, congratulations, you gave me the run-around when you could have made your point clearer from the word go.
