Come on guys, this whole thread has been one of the best runs of dry humor I've seen. That was evident from the title. The on-running bickering about which line should have tipped everyone off. I guess some of us got it, and some just got got.
Thank you. Yes, it was based on real issues but, the whole intention was humor. I honestly do not like reading postings that make no sense but I do enjoy laughter and bringing a smile to folks faces. Everyone enjoy the day, I've got to get to work...

Very nice hummers. I agree the 200-500 / D500 is a great combination.

I meant to congratulate you on quitting smoking. It is a very hard thing to do. I was also torn between the Mark IV and the Mark III when trying to decide but given how much I had already spent on glass I decided the Mark III was all I needed.
Please use quote reply so we know who the response is for.
I was tempted to save some money and get the mk III but I do time lapse projects and I wanted the 4K image capture feature the mk IV has. I had been saving for almost a year when I finally decided on the mk IV and I'm glad I did. I use its WIFI to control the camera remotely and transfer images to my tablet. A lot of people decided not to upgrade because they felt the IV wasn't that much an upgrade from the III to justify the cost. Since I never had a III and the SR doesn't do some of the things the III does, I find the IV to be way cool... Again, enjoy your 5D III, it's still quite a substantial camera.

Gorgeous car. I had a 1966 GTO back in the early 80's. Wasn't a rag top though. I also had a 1965 Catalina, bright red with white interior and white rag top. Both cars had 389 with a 4 barrel. I sure do miss those cars...

I'm not sure which line it may be. Sometimes I post from my ancient Samsung call phone with a thoroughly shattered screen. Some times I post from one of my 3 laptop PC'S. Most often I post from my 10 inch Samsung tablet with virtual keyboard. Formats may vary but the coherence level usually remains low.

As far as touch screen, if you chimp or review images with the camera a lot, the touch screen comes in quite handy. If you make menu changes often, the touch screen comes in quite handy. If you aren't into learning a new different and most likely better was of doing certain things with your camera then a touch screen is no big deal. I have the touch screen on a several of my cameras and I personally like them. It really is a user preference thing.

I use it with a D7200 from time to time and I have no complaints.

Very nice.
Thank you. Since I didn't want to damage the camera sensor or my retina, I basically pointed the camera in the right direction, set it at ISO 100, f/5.6, 1/4000 of a second and focused on infinity. I centered the sun by looking at a reflection inside the view finder. Basically I guessed... First time I ever took a direct photo of the sun.

You're right, I'm far from perfect, this has never bothered me in the past and at my age, your lengthy put down is not going to stop me from making a fool of myself. If you hate poor grammar, just skip it when you see my avatar. 
I apologize if you feel I was putting you down. I was not putting any individuals down, just using real world examples to write something that I felt would come across as funny. Poor grammar is what it is, as long as ones point comes across it's all good.

It goes against everything in me to be the grammar police but this just screams for it.

It's that darn spell check correct feature I really should turn off. I try but can't correct all the correctors corrections, beside, it was 4:30 in the morning and I really did want to get back to sleep.

In response to 'does this dress make me look fat', I usually respond, no, the dress is an innocent victim. But then I bought my wife a hot tub. Happy wife, happy life (if only)...

Welcome to the forum. The 6D mk II is the improved version. Of the 3 Full Frame models Canon makes, the 6D is the most recent to be updated and the other two are not in your budget. You could cancel and spend a little more on a 5D mk III but that would be a step back in the improvement department, although it's light years ahead of your 10D. If you don't really need a full frame you could cancel the 6D II order and get a new or refurbished 80D. The 80D may be crop sensor but it's still a really good versatile camera. I have one and use it almost as much as my 5D mk IV.
