The available evidence actually shows the majority of cameras currently used by "serious" photographers to be non-SLR, as in the past, when famous pros preferred simple rangefinder cameras over SLRs. >That *you* >believe *all* these other people are misguided, is understood. Your fervent >belief in this does not change reality one iota. Putting words in my mouth again. Why am I not surprised. The sure sign of someone with nothing more persuasive to say. >> You must feel very threatened. > >That looks like projection to me, John. *I* am not the one who's championing >a type of camera that the vast majority of photographers know to be inferior >to the SLR. *You* are.

You have that backwards. -- Best regards, John Buying a dSLR doesn't make you a photographer, it makes you a dSLR owner.
