Originally posted by Eulogy Personally, with Canon, it either seems they're wayyy to heavy, or they feel cheaper than you would ever imagine.
Girlfriend has a 40D, and that thing is like a lead weight, and due to it's shape is really awkward to use, and my brother has a T1i, which feels like I might break it if I merely scroll a wheel too fast.
I saw this picture on another site. It's of a T2i, and its owner wanted to know if it was a common problem. To my shock, several people responded with "Oh, yeah, happens all the time. Just glue it back on."
Lower end Canons don't just feel fragile and cheap, they actually are.
I'm so freakin' glad I didn't go Canikon a year ago.
With the budget I had, I would have ended up with cheap plastic crap. My K-r, while very much entry level, has served me very well, and feels substantially better in build quality.
