Rob,

When Canon changed mounts they said that people would understand and get
over it.  But it's the reason I've never purchased a Canon EOS camera,
though on occasion I've been tempted to do so. There's Canon before and
Canon after, and they may as well be different companies. I understood,
but never did get over it.

Mark,

Envy you folks who have old Nikon, Leica, etc. glass which is forward  
compatible with digital bodies.  I have a cupboard full of Canon FD  
lens collected over 35 years that doesn't work with Canon or any other  
digital bodies.  Rumors of an adaptor for the mini 4/3 cameras, but  
not a pro-level DSLR.
