Seems strange, there are a lot of satisfied users of the D5 and I have some some stunning images produced by them. You say that you have experience of other Canon cameras, what ones? Maybe you have a faulty one, maybe your technique is flawed.. certainly trying to evaulate image quality on a LCD preview screen is falwed anyway.

With most digital cameras you will need to learn new skills, including the use of photoshop or similar to get the best out of images.

Why not post a link to an image so that we can see what sort of problems you are having?

Having a large viewfinder really helps as I wear glasses and I like to manually focus at times.




Manually focussing an AF camera can be awkward, as it doesn't have the focus aids that the old 35mm Manual focus SLRs have such as microprisms or split image, maybe this is a contributory factor.
