Trolls & Fanboys (rant)

BOTH hugely annoying, but not really in the same category in my mind. Please share your experiences.

In Australia I recommend Digital Camera Warehouse: http://goo.gl/WVkR9
Outside Australia I recommend Adorama: http://goo.gl/DG6gE & Amazon: http://goo.gl/ixtaU

    Hi Matt, I share your annoyance about this kind of people. I've subscribed to a site called gutefrage.net (in english: good question) where you can ask questions of any type and - hopefully - get useful answers from other users. Many of the questions asked in the photography section go like this: "I am a total beginner and would like to get a DSLR. Which is better, Canon or Nikon?" And then there are those people who answer: "Get a Nikon" oder "Canon is the best." Of course, the question is pretty stupid already, but why waste people's - and your own - time with such an answer? And there is one guy even who replies to all of these questions with the same "Get a Canon. Nikons are just toys." All the time! Well, so much for that.... Since I have watched a lot of your videos and have never commented on any of them, I want to say that I like your stuff very much. Please continue, especially with the tutorials and the quick critiques!
    Greetings from Germany,
    Michael
