Just changing from Pentax to Canon. Most of my photos are of motorsport or
of hill walking so camera must be robust, light, ( an impossible contradiction?) and a degree of water resistance is desirable. Which model in their range, preferably SH, should I look for? Gerald |

That may be so - but there have been numerous reported cases in newsgroups and mailing lists where this has happened, so there is most definitely a problem there. There is even a company in the US that will modify them to prevent this. And I speak as a victim of EOS 5 command dial breakage, in my case within a year of buying it new. Other than that I agree it is a great body. Pat |

Many people have had a lot of expensive trouble with the command dial. Why do you think a service firm (in USA) goes to the trouble of advertising a 'permanent' solution? Tom |
