Funny, but when I borrowed a friends EOS 1n to shoot some stuff the 
camera felt much cheaper made in my hands than my EOS 1 did,the 
viewfinder seemed darker or flatter  something.  I just knew I did 
not like looking through it at all.  At the time I was still shooting 
with Canon and was not even considering switching, but was 
considering the purchase of an EOS1n and the use of that camera 
turned me off...totally.  

As I have stated before we all buy cameras for our own reasons.  It 
is obvious you prefer Canon, so I suggest you continue to use 
their equipment. They do make nice lenses and camera bodies and also 
have, or used to have, great customer support.
