[QUOTE="Mark F, post: 329295, member: 12825"] It was pre 2005. Sensors were not what they are now. Wonder what he would think today. But the word for today is "good glass". I'd keep my full frame forever if I had $$$$ for the lenses that will make a difference on full frame. It's not the body. That is where people get turned around or get obsessed with. The body... Like that is the make or break thing to buy. Now, if that guy would say and showed me that putting cheap affordable to me lenses on that body even made the difference for him to jump ship, I'd be all ears. But, he wrote a book to make money, and gave what people wanted to see. He's a great photographer, but I'm questioning just how much his choice of equipment has helped. I'm not going to pay for the book to find out though :) I like nikon, but I have seen jaw dropping prints from nikon, canon, Fuji, Sony, Leica, etc... So I don't think it's the branding either.
