Speak? Email? Walk? ....All of these things
I can not stand a certain woman in one of our offices, she is rude and demanding and all whilst not having a clue about what she's talking about.
BUT - that's fine, I mean... people get like that, right?..
There is a guy sitting outside the cafe [yes, I HAD to have a coffee so have snuck to the cafe!] on a table in the front window, he's having a cigarette and an espresso.. it's just started to rain down, hard. He's just sat there - blackberry and cigarettes soaking up the blackened rain that's falling from the sky. Power to him.
I am trying to get back to happy - it's been way to long. A combination of work, life and my head... it's time to smile more and scowl less.
The sky outside looks amazing!... it's so black against the building across the road which is made of redbrick.. so, black on red... it looks amazing. yeah.
The Canon 5D Mk2 [Mk II] is coming, right?... Here be the current "specs"
Here's some rumour for y'all...
The calendar tells us that the 5D, Canon's second best DSLR range, is due for a refresh. It comes from a message board, so take this with a grain of salt, but someone on DP Review forums has posted specs for a second generation 5D with the following changes: A modest 15.3MP up from 12.8MP, and a massive 2 stop bump in light sensitivity to 25600 ISO.
The cam will supposedly shoot at 6fps instead of 3, and will have dual Digic III processors instead of a single Digic II cpu. The AF system will use 29 points instead of 9, and it'll have the same weather sealing as the topline 1Ds Mark III, as well as live view. The announcement is supposed to come on April 22nd, at $3500. That's a lot of stat smather, but the bottom line is that Nikon's D300 better watch its ass. [DP Review via Photography Bay, thanks Eric]

Gah, whenever you talk about camera guts I get confused and skip it all. None of it makes any sense...
It should, but it doesn't.
Wow, that is a good spot. If the rumors are true then thats a big 'go home' message to nikon ;-)
I know it's a terrible pun but
all those 'specs' you sworn under oath might have stood better for SPECulation than SPECification (I warned you it'd be awful ;))
As far as Canon is concerned they'll be a tad more conspicuous than Nikon when releasing a new model...
5D mkII my a**! :P Wait and see.
