    Sorry to hear that. I think service has been the main concern of Konica Minolta owners. I'm sure you'll be happy with Canon equipment but it's a shame you feel the need to abandon your KM system.

    It must be something to have $18,000 worth of gear and not have everything you need.

    At the risk of sounding flippant, I would think Minolta owners would have gotten use to being left in a void. Minolta took years to deliver a DSLR, and skipped generations of pro level cameras. Things like that.

    It seems odd to decide to drop them just when a company that seems interested in actually selling cameras takes over the business. If you've been waiting on Konica-Minolta to take the DSLR market seriously for this long, what's another couple months?
