Because that the the camera I hv for .... over 10 yr .. and I have it since new ar ma .. ( EOS 3 )
I like it, because it had the best AF system ( still ) eye focus is more or less useless for people with glasses like me .. but the weight, balance, hand feel .. very solid ... it has bigger grip then F100 as well .. (I have grip for it, interchange with EOS1N)
I like the shutter sould for both F100 and EOS3 ..
Of course, F5, EOS 1 those top end SLR are good .. but again, for money/performance .. I like the F100/EOS3 series .. still offer near same feature as F5/EOS1 ( $2K vs $4K back then wor .. ) and within EOS3 and F100 .. I like EOS3 a bit more because of the handling/grip .. but nice thing for F100, I can use AA battery .. which is a big deal now ...
So, I can still play with my F100 once a while now, but EOS 3 .. dont want to spend $20 on a 2CR5 for just take 1 roll la.. |
