If anyone ever again...
...tells me that my software takes a long time to apply a DB restructuring as it has been running for 3 minutes before finishing, then look at this:

A brief history of my cameras
I am not one for writing product reviews as the Internet is littered with good reviews, from the tech head perspectives to the real world usability perspectives.
However, I am sort of an awkward mix when it comes to why I do photography. I love both the art of photography and the idea of fixing a moment in time to be cherished and remembered for ever, as well as the technical aspects of the camera system itself. I do not really need a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III to take great photos. Before that I had a Canon EOS 1D Mark II (which was a great camera), with that the Canon EOS 350D, and before that the FijiFilm FinePix S602 Zoom, and started with the FujiFilm FinePix 2400 Zoom.
In order to put things into perspective, I want to talk about why one would want a Canon 1Ds3 rather than a FinePix 2400Zoom, and whether something in the middle is good enough. However this is where things get a little bit hairy. How do you define "good enough". Fortunately this is not the subject of this review. For purposes of this discussion, my definition of good enough will be used and I will explain what it entails later.
