Different 5D, Diego... The one from Canon
I love the camera but I am sick and tired of cleaning that sensor from dust specks. I can't wait for Canon to finally release a replacement with automated sensor dust cleaning

Sony Alpha 700 has it

Anyone know how circular-polarizing filters are built :?:

The other day my Hoya Cir-Polarizing 62.0s fell from my hands to the ground. We were in the mountains so I decided to fix it at home. The filter has two parts (a ring with the glass and other thick ring) separated by a thin and narrow (1 mm) ring wich joins them. I don't know if that ring was closed before the fall or it is as now, one side broken ring

I've got a Hoya that keeps falling apart. Optically I've not had an issue but build quality stinks. They use really flimsy snap-rings to hold the thing together.

I have a bunch of Hoya filters and none of them are falling apart. I'd buy them again for sure!

Hmm, I 'm looking around the camera sites and there are some pretty funky dSLR's around for Christmas.

I like the new Olympus E-3. Live view, image stabilization and weather proof. Looks like a nice outdoor camera. The Nikon D300 also looks like it has incredible low noise images.

Apparently Canon will be releasing successors to the 400d and 40d in January.

I'm sure they haven't fell to the ground (rocky) as mine

Today I've gone to buy a new circular polarizing filter (62 mm), they had Kenko for 50€ and MFI for 20€. Though I know Kenko is better I haven't doubted on buying MFI, if they fall they'll both break

So I'm looking at getting my first dSLR since I just can't get the quality I want out of my point and shoot.

In anycase, for climbing and nature photography does anyone have any opinions on the Nikon d40 vs. the d50? I know there are like a million reviews out there but without any dslr experience I have a hard time knowing who to trust.
