I win?

Also, how did your friend get the A900? It is not scheduled for release until next month.
This makes your claim and opinion less legitimate.

Wow, apparently my last comment got cut off.

Your comment that the A900 is a real photographer's camera based on the 100% viewfinder is foolish.
5D: 96% viewfinder = 92% area, 5D Mk. II: 98% viewfinder = 96% area. This leads to a very small fraction of the image missing.

Many famous landscape photographers, and even "real" photographers now use cameras with less than 100% viewfinder coverage. Your assertion that 100% is necessary is faulty. Galen Rowell used an N80 which only had 92% coverage... a lot less than even the cheap dSLRs on the market today.

But I don't anyone will argue that his photos are better than yours, your friend's, and most photographers'. Don't give yourself too much credit.

Of course I would want 100% viewfinder coverage, but it's not necessary to make a "real" camera. Nor does the lack of it make the venerable 5D a "toy."

How does it make the 5D look like a toy? It makes the 5D's viewfinder look like a toy?
I also have a 5D, and I have never found the 96% viewfinder coverage to be inadequate despite using film cameras with 100% coverage in the past. How does a

"just the thing the quiet before the storm we're expecting."
That makes a lot of sense. Good job.

i better win

D90 isn't $600 cheaper than a 50D.
If you compare the body only, then it's a $400 difference.
If you compare the kits, then it's a $300 difference.

Can I really hope to win?
