If you don’t like the factory defaults for the control dial assignments, then just reassign them to your liking. INRS.

We are all different. Had a Canon Pellix back when they were hot. Could easily gone with Canon if I hadn't gotten a great deal on a comprehensive Nikon kit. No camera is life changing. The constant propaganda drumbeat is tiresome.
Yes it is. And the fact that an old d3300 can do more than 80 percent of the people who take pictures it's just a gas attack.

This has become a thread worthy of Mary Shelley. You have the gift of irony and thread sustainability.
So, I thought that another random question would fit. The many theories about your handle "CHG_CANON" include: "a Chicago Canon user"?
Or, as a programmer, I thought: an esoteric programming concept in persistent object systems where an element is added or removed from a set or collection using a canonical lock (ChgCanon) when necessary.
Or, you're secretly signaling you're intention to change Canon models.
Or, simply a reference to the charging indicator on Canon cameras.
Which is it? The people want to know!

I’ve been a Nikon guy since 1967 though I update every 3-5 years. I went through three Nikons documenting the Vietnam conflict. The only one that survived two tours was the original Nikonos.
A good friend of mine was an AF Photog in Nam. Think he shot Nikon too.

Canon was primarily a consumer camera company as late as the early 1980s. Their mid 70s AE-1 was wildly successful and put them 'on the map' in the market among the big 5 of Canon, Nikon, Minolta, Pentax and Olympus. The 'new' F-1 of 1981 was serious competition with Nikon in the professional market, going against the then Nikon F3. Being the official camera sponsor of the 1984 Summer Olympics (Los Angeles) helped garner attention. The decision to go all electronic and autofocus in 1987 wrote the history we still see today in Canon's global leadership.
