Every PRO I know (among them from major magazines and newspapers, magazine editors and just plain users) agrees with me on the weaknesses of the F5, pretty much. It's an awesome camera. But it's not perfect. It needs help in strong backlighting. It can't live up to the hype some Nikon reps have used since the FA came out - that you'll never need to use manual again. Or users who play with them, but don't ever really put them through their paces. I'm through with this, I don't have time to defend against such petty sniping. ========= Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO The distinction between past, present and future is only an illusion, even if a stubborn one. - Albert Einstein
