Actually Erwin, you said these cameras were the *best*, which I don't agree with at all. Of course they are fine cameras, and many excellent images have been made with them. But many great images have been shot with all sorts of cameras. Just because certain photographers excelled with certain equipment doesn't mean that the equipment is the best. But when you get right down to it, the best camera is the one that has your finger on it's shutter release! Photography is about taking pictures, not sitting around arguing about what was the best camera ever made! BK
