 I have a Canon EOS IX Slr camera, with 24 to 85mm lens it uses APS or Advantix films instead of conventional films, it was revolutionary at its time until the emergence of the DLSR, i bought it for sentimental reasons and its ease of use, i also have a Canon Speedlight 430ez flash.. here is my problem now im thinking of buying a DLSR im choosing either a Nikon D70 or Canon 350d or 400d, but im leaning towards a Canon, so i currently have 2 SLR a Nikon F80 with Tamron 24 to 200mm lens and Nikon SB-25 flash, and the Canon EOS IX with 24 to 80mm lens and Canon Speedlight 430ez, if i will buy a DLSR, one of my SLR will go, i will sell, which would i sell, one would be my backup SLR. OR shouldf i just keep it because its useful and it wouldnt be that large sum of money if i sell it. If i sell shall i sell the whole line or just the camera body, the lens or the flash. If i go DIGITAL would my existing flash be fully compatible or need to be sold and be replaced as well.. in a bdget ...

 my friend (female) believes that 1st off a canon if shot at a person will only break the leg, I told her it would rip you in half... who's right??? :) Also she said that a canon coudn't penetrate an Elephants skin, it coudn't kill and Elephant. Primarily because the canon ball is blunt and large. I told her it would most definetly kill and elephant if you shot one with a canon why.. the canon ball weights ?? 20 lbs and is traveling about 1000 mph and that would equate to something like a million joules of energy on impact... any way she is stubbon but then again I am too.... so who do you guys side with, me or her ...

 I believe the original installation of this printer FAX scanner copier somehow caused the Canon software to become shareware as an integral part of another program. If I delete the Canon MultiPASS exe file, I'm sure it will delete or corrupt a program. The warning on each start-up says there is a task (I can't find the shareware task) running that would be corrupted or deleted if I delete the file C:/Program Files\Canon\MultiPASS\MPTBox.exe. I use Windows 2000 & can't affort to upgrade to XP right now. How can I stop this half-screen warning from appearing on my desktop everytime I start up my PC? The Canon program takes up a lot of space too. Please help if you know how. Thank you. ...

 Originally I ordered from Canon a bubble printer Model i550, unfortunetly my printer ceased to work, I contact canon tech service and he could fix it, so I am out of a printer, but I still want to stay with Canon, What Model do you suggest that is closest to the i550 that I had originally I use it to print black & white text in draft mode, et. al., and also print scanned photo's using Glossy Photo paper with excellent results. I am tired of going to Consumer Reports and asking them what they think, I believe Canon know there equiptment far better. I await your suggestion on a model that I originall had. Thanks ...

 I'm starting to take photography as a real hobby, spending many weekends out there shooting, and I feel it's time to change my shooting gear from a canon A520 point & shoot (which surprisingly accepts a lot of manual settings) and my old canon AE-1 (with a tamron 70-280 lens, and the trusty old 50mm prime) to a dSLR. Now I have done quite a lot of research about Nikon and Canon dSLR cameras (Nikon D50 and Canon 350D in particular), and I know both are very good bodies with not-the-greatest kit lenses. And I know that it all comes to lenses when photo quality is considered, and that both manufacturers have excelent lenses. I also know that I'll stick with the brand I choose now for the next couple of years. Question: How do Nikon and Canon lens offerings compare together in terms of pricing and quality? To be more specific, if you take two very similar lenses (both in terms of numbers AND optics quality) from each manufacturer, which one would be cheaper? Would this be a general rule? ...
