Hi Phil,

Too many consecutive 24 - hour sessions! :-[     Didn't even register 
when I pasted in the link which included *Nikon*!
I read the review - it also mentioned the Canon dSLR equivalent - there 
were ads with photos on the bottom of the review page and I think one 
was a Canon at the time I looked at it.
