[CS-FSLUG] OT: DSLRs

[Yama Ploskonka]

Sony and rootkit...

What I have found is that at Sony one hand doesn't know what the other 
does.
The Mavica was the best camera ever, when putting together price, 
performance, quality of the picture, ease of operation.  But it was in 
my experience just a happening, since other Sony products I have found 
overpriced, underperforming and unnecessarily complex inside and out. 
And of course the rootkits..  Since my Mavicas I haven't checked them 
out, currently I am a Fuji devotee and happy of it - basically cannot 
afford Canon or Nikon.
BTW, I dislike how Canon has little or no support for Linux drivers for 
their printers, but then again I guess that the photo people have 
nothing to do with it...  :-)
