Yeah, Jay-Z has just launched the first scary class warfare warning, "if the gap between the haves and have nots widens, there won't be enough police to control the streets." You know what that threat means.

Well you and your kind stay clear of my space (expletive deleted); we B ready!

I was in your same situation 5 years ago when my monitor failed. I purchased 2 Acer 24" for under $300@. The brightness is great and the dependability superb. I will never purchase a 30" again. Tools on the left, image on the right--works perfect for editing at 10% of the cost.

Neither one of your turtle shots are in good focus or in 1:1 relationship with the log so it is difficult to make the comparison.

Eddie Tapp, Photoshop World and Canon expert conveys that the optimum ISO setting is 160 for Canon. Regardless, with Lightroom and Photoshop filters, I can enhance and blow away either image over the other.

When I converted to digital photography, I was directed by camera shops to Canon because of the large full size sensor and the compatibility of lenses with the sensor. It was a departure from my Nikon F6.

When viewing sporting events and Olympics, the white lenses (Canon) are most prevalent. ABC exclusively used Canon as the cameras of choice. Knowing that all the pros can afford any camera they want, this is comforting for my choice.

They also make the surveillance $125,000 lens capable of taking a quality photo through a window 10 blocks away (1 mile). I wore out 2 Nikons after 160,000 exposures...have yet to have problems with any Canon--built like a tank.
