Some marriages come with children, ours comes with toys. Hmm, that doesn't sound right. Anyway, I finally picked up my new EOS 5D to be my primary camera. I'll still keep the 10D around for the long telephotos since it has more pixels per inch on its smaller sensor. I'll do some comparison shots at some point.

Those who have actually listened to me on the subject of digital photography know that the magnification factor of the 10D has been bugging me for years. I have a very nice 17mm lens that functions as a 28mm lens on the 10D. When I put it on the 5D however, I was tickled pink to have my 17mm lens back. If you're not familiar with how that works, go look up digital focal length conversion factors. This article is okay, but it doesn't mention the effects perspective like this one does.

I'll still be using my EOS 3 since I have a lot of film left in my fridge. I just bought a changing bag so I can develop my own film at home. It saves a couple bucks and it's a fun and toxic thing to do in your basement
