I believe that just like with auto manufacturers, no company is going to release the best stuff they can make, until they know they can make something better - EVER (unless they make it really costly, obviously). It would risk the future of the company too greatly. This of course has to be balanced with what the competition has out there as well.


I'm sure next generation of Canons will be leap frogging Nikon. Too bad there is a pretty slim chance they will not likely fix dynamic range/noise levels with firmware updates.

Some people like to say "oh canon has inferior engineers".. I think that is completely false. Just like with Microsoft/Apple, you can't say either side has better engineers. They both likely went to similar or same schools, they likely get paid around the same. Whats the difference? Management.

ramble, ramble, ramble, ramble... and so on.
