Canon 5D Mark II Instant Rebate


The Canon 5D Mark II, the world's best DSLR for nature and landscape photography due to its combined light weight and superior resolution, has a $100 instant rebate (read price reduction)at Adorama and at B&H: it's now only $2,399. (Sorry, Nikon, theD3X is too heavy to be a contender for nature and landscape photography where you're in the field, and every other Nikon DSLR has much lower resolution than the 5D Mk II.)
At B&H, it also includes a free "Red Giant B&H Video Production Software Bundle ($494.95 Value)," although I have no idea what that is.
Note my use of weasel words in this sentence: "The Canon 5D Mark II is the world's best DSLR for nature and landscape photography." In this sentence, "DSLR" is the weasel word, excluding better cameras that are not DSLRs from the comparison.
If we remove "SLR" from the sentence, that leaves the LEICA M9-Pand LEICA M9 as the world's best digital cameras for nature and landscape photography.
If we remove the weasel word "digital," and open the field to every camera, then the world's best camera for serious nature and landscape photography is a lightweight 4x5" camera like theTachihara.
