As far as their lens line is concerned (I counted 37 lenses in a recent brochure, many of equivalent quality to Canon's "L" lenses), I expect that if there is a lens you need that is not supplied by Konica Minolta, chances are you won't be considering the Canon 20D, either. Of course common sense or facts have nothing to do with this; you are probably correct, people are either "Nikon" photographers or "Canon" photographers. -dan c. At 12:07 PM 18-01-05 -0500, B. D.
