Goodbye dear friend


The sad time has come for me to retire my wonderful Canon 1d Mark II N. This camera has been slung on my shoulder for almost 6 years shooting nearly every major news event in and around Boston, has traveled with me to Guatemala, Poland, Mexico and has covered many national news stories with me. The shutter which I have already replaced once in the past is about to go and I think its time to put it on the shelf. The photo above is an example of what a shutter that is about to go looks like. This was the best, most durable camera I have owned and used. Many people with agree with me, like the specialists at CPS (Canon Professional Services) that this was the best camera Canon made in its time. Goodbye Mark II N & enjoy the shelf.

What a beautiful homage to your friend. I find this post very sweet, and I'm glad to hear your keeping the camera. Your grand kids will dig it!
