    Canon 6D

    This new 6D sounds quite promising with wi-fi file transfer. The rest of the bits is the usual canon stuff though increased mp, full frame censor and price hike. http://www.wexphotographic.com/buy-canon-eos-6d-digital-slr-camera-body/p1532845

    A new Swaro EL range are due for release 1/1/2010. I have'nt looked at the specs to see if they are different to the current range yet, but surely they would be hard to beat.

    Sigma question?

    If the sigma lenses are highly recomended, are their teleconverters as good as the lenses? particulary with canon 70-300 IS, or would the kenko be a better choice. There is not much difference in price, but I was wondering how well they both work with AF and IS in mind. Thank you for answers...
