Well not really a garage sale but definitely a blowout sale of all my Canon stuff. Why am I selling my Canon gear you may ask? It’s a long story that resembles a long relationship that came to an end. It was not easy for me to make the decision to switch to Nikon but I took the leap about 6 months ago. I kept all my Canon as I was slowly getting used to my new gear and now I am 100% Nikonian.
I have been a loyal Canon shooter since I started shooting 15 years ago and pretty much owned every body they put out (yeah, I have a weakness for new cameras) I was happy shooting with 1Ds MarkII and 5D’s. After that came the downturn. I grew frustrated with the AF system on the 5D Mark2/1Ds MarkIII and the Canon flash system which seemed to be inconsistent and underexposed.
Back in May I tried Nikon at Victoria & Adam’s wedding. After that wedding I had a new girlfriend, her name…D3. The next day I ordered (2) D3′s and one D700 for Candace and 5 top of the line lenses ranging from 14mm to 210mm and recently acquired my new toy, the 200/f2.0. I call it “the beast”.
Anyways, I feel that Canon has paid way more attention to the point & shoot, video oriented consumer and neglected the pro shooters. I don’t need HD video in my camera, take all those resources and fix the crappy AF system. I’m a photographer and don’t plan on doing any video anytime soon. I know many shooters switching to Nikon right now and if Canon is not getting serious they will continue to lose customers. There goes that Canon sponsorship.
With all that said, I know that many of you may not agree with me and are loyal to Canon through these “tough” times so here is all my gear which I am offering to sell. Call 954 636 8422 or email me at stephan@maloman.com. You pay for shipping. If you are local, you can pick it up in person at my studio. I took very good care of all my equipment. My gear comes with the original boxes, manuals and lots of Maloman lovin’.
