Sorry you had to put up with all that guff about selling my Canon gear. It was clearly madness, one invests in lenses, and I have two f2.8 I love and would be bonkers to sell.

Anyway I solved the whole "small camera to carry around when with the family - but with enough control to appeal to the nerdy photographer" (very long-winded) dilemma.

The answer was a Canon S95 thanks to some money that fell into my lap. A compact for folks who like to dabble with SLRs. I promise to shut up about cameras now.

In this post a few weeks ago I talked about possibly selling my Canon photo gear and moving over to Sony.

The reason was the newly announced A55 camera which really looked like a technology I wanted to invest in - especially given my eyesight problems. The only thing nagging me about this move though was that I'd be moving down from a "prosumer" camera to something slightly flimsier.

Well it looks like the rumours of the higher-end A77 were true. Take a look here. I'm completely sold. It's the A77 for me please.

Anyone want to buy a used - but mint - Canon EOS 50D?
