well i guess its …
well i guess its only 1Ds series so its not that fast.
dont forget that those fast cameras are made for sports photographers who NEED that fast cameras to not miss THE moment when a football player gets tackled.

but i understand your concern, when a friend and i go out for a shooting. i bring my 5D II and he brings his analog Contax MF camera. you can see the different, i make like 50-100shots every time. and he does like 4-5shots
i simply delete the shots i dislike and shoot again.

Just hearing him …
Just hearing him clicking away taking 10 shots in the space of no time “machine gunning” really annoyed me. Its exactly what i dislike about digital photography. Very little thought is given to each photo, film teaches you to be more selective and slow down.

Digital can be great but i think using film is a great way to learn what your camera is actually doing and learn to make adjustments manually to get your perfect image

PerkinElmer and Ball Aerospace. And it uses mirrors, not lenses. The precision required makes this Canon lens balk in comparison.

This thing cost $200K back in 1984 when it was new, and it was shipped back to Canon to be refitted at their own expense- there were only three original lenses made.
