Canon is absolutely junk! I've had 4 of their digital DLR's and they've all had image flaws. Worse, they hide it from the public because they are fearful from losing market share to Nikon. They will not let you speak to anyone in their Technical Service Dept. In reply to: "Nikon's new SLR leads the pack for sensor quality"

2 Canon Digital Rebels XT's BOTH HAVE FOCUSING PROBLEMS
Both of my Canon Digital Rebels XT's have focusing problems. One was almost brand new and the other was about one year old.
Horizontal photos were out of focus and vertical photos were sharp. Took me about one month and 500 photos took figure out what was wrong.
Called Canon Customer Service Dept. and lady acknowledged that there is a flaw across their COMPLETE LINE OF DSLR's. Since it was out of warranty, they charged me $200.00. I believe this should be a recall issue, but since it's really hard to detect, Canon prefers to keep it quiet.
My friend called Canon a couple of weeks later and the Customer Service Rep. claimed he's never heard of such a problem. Both of them REFUSE to allow me to talk to a technician.
Therefore, as a long time Canon camera fan, I am switching over to Nikon. Shame on Canon for hiding a serious problem.
Any questions, please e-mail me at dandear99@hotmail.com
