I have been using Canon digital slr cameras for over 5 years and have been pleased with them. I bought the Canon 10D when it came out in 2003 and used it until 2007. At the time I bought it I was still also using film cameras.

I bought the Canon 1D Mark IIn in 2006, it's a very fast camera with almost non existent shutter lag and with lots of custom functions. It's working flawlessly, I use it mostly for wildlife but also for weddings and beach photography.
It's a heavy camera, 43.2 oz./1,225g but is well designed, well balanced and extremely sturdy built.
Many of the pictures on this site is taken with that camera. It have been discontinued and replaced by the Canon 1D Mark III.
It have been reports that the 1D Mark III:s auto focus performance is not that good, especially for action shots and especially in sunny hot weather and using AI Servo. The picture quality is excellent though when sharp focus is achieved. I have not experienced such problems with the Mark IIn.
Fountain with Canon 5D Mk II
Canon 5D Mark II is an excellent camera for portraits, landscape and wedding photography. I really love the image quality from this camera. It's full frame sensor and the high resolution (21.1 megapixel) results in outstanding levels of detail and realism.
