Hi Viken, Actually I don't know why people complain so much. My only two complaints are about the slowness and the size of pictures presented. There is certain...

I have no problems with mine but - a) I don't use flash except the built-in one or manual guns and studio heads b) I have a wide range of lenses and have been...
Dare you give us a list of those that don't focus accurately, as the 7D
was made to be compatible with existing lenses, it'd be a shame if they
ain't .........
In the USA, of the two flashes I sent in, one was new and one bought from Darrin Behm on this list. I sent NO warranty cards and they asked for none. The same...
Hello, just some interesting info to share. I was looking thru a 1970 issue of Time Magazine and found a ad for a Minolta srt101 with case and a 50mm f/1.7...
David, I hope I am fairly representative of long term Minolta users both MD and AF. With AF I've had 7Xi, 9Xi, 500Si Super (the wifes), 700Si and 7 bodies...
Hi everyone, I'm starting to (slowly) save for a 7D, but I have two questions: 1. I plan to use it with my existing lenses: a 24-105(D), a 70-210 f/4 and 50mm...
quick answer is that such cameras then were about equal to one months' senior clerical or junior exec salary - say $3,000 upwards in today's money I earned...
... The question of whether older lenses give 100 per cent on digital sensors is down to all sorts of things including the treatment the lens has had....
... My 100-300mm D is dead on, my new Tamron 14mm f2.8 is OK but very critical; my 50mm macro old f2.8 is perfect most of the time but throws up bad...
One thing to note is that the cameras that have backfocus issues show variability with different lenses ... at one time, David was contemplating having his D7...
... with ... digital ... David, I've been considering the 70-200 (or the 100-300) as cheaper alternatives to the new KM SSM lens ... but hesitant because I...
I require 1 or 2 pictures of top quality taken with each of these lenses. Preferred: architectural/city/candid with 17-35, action/portrait/nature with 28-75....
That's nice to hear. I would drove to them and want smth in return. I've keep reading about 7D problems like the thing would sell for $100. I would be really...
... Minolta USM is called SSM (does anybody know what SSM means - super silent motor?). I think only two lenses have it for now at least. Minolta 100-300 APO...

Well first of all, I actually don't live in the US. (I wonder what made you think that :-) ) Regarding the 300mm Zoom or Prime issue - Today I have a 28-105...
Thanks for the info on the website! I remember the gas wars and sometimes it would go down to 16.9 cents a gal. I would have to wash the windshields, check the...
Are you suggesting only $250 to $1300 inflation in the last 35 years? The USA must have had a very strange economic ride relative to the rest of the world for...
... no, just their comment that all the lenses will eventually be reoptimised for DG EX spec - extra coatings, changed designs to prevent flare, higher...
Search in this group and you will find lots of threads on it. The basic issue is that some 7Ds autofocus sensors come miscalibrated so that when you focus on...
I don't think that inflation calculator is useful for real-life situations. For example, home prices in California have increased by about 20x since 1970,...
I bought one a couple of months ago, a 7D that is, and I am satisfied with although there few things that I would like to change if the camera was to be...
