I was thinking of the EOS users.

I am a Nikon user myself. I just switched back from Canon. I just had a flash lying around that only works on the eos cameras, and I have no use for it.

There was nothing wrong with the Canons I had. I just got nostalgic, and went back to Nikon. Plus the price of the film cameras has gotten cheap. I can now afford the F4 that I coveted in college. I will also pick up an F5 as well.

I already picked up a D1x so I can go back to shooting semi-pro again. I have one of the local papers that has seen some of my old work, and are going to let me shoot some sports for them. I am also doing some part time work for my cousin in his studio, and am thinking of going back to shooting wedding again. I have shot a few this year for family, and everyone is happy with my work.
