Pascale, I think you are right about being able to use the cam fine with no bother on portrait style. If you have never used a vertical grip you will most likely never have a problem, its a funny thing, once you have used one, you miss it like hell if you havent got one. I think the 20D is a little lighter than the 10D, so I understand where you are coming from, it can take some getting used to the weight especially with a big lens on it. Think of poor Jim with that 1D MK II and a huge lens, he must work out lol Jim I have only ever used a 1D II in the studio so never really needed to worry about all the focus points, still 13 is better than the 7 I have, I get a few misses Oops! Manly shoot landscape macro and studio so not a big issue. Tom hope you dont have to wait too long for your 1D MK IIn, sure it will be worth the wait anyway. Anyway veering off topic so I will shut up now lol Simon

The Truth is Out There
