Sadly she'll probably be teaching features more than photography.

Hello all,
I'm kind of new here, been lurking around mostly, but I've seen enough to know
that you'll be able to help me.... Here's my situation:
Last night I started the first class of a ten-week workshop on Portraiture. As usually happens, the instructor came to
the point where she wanted to get a rough idea of who she was dealing with. "How many people shoot Canon? How
many are Nikon shooters?" She counted the hands that went up, and then, shaking her head side to side in the
"NO" gesture, she said, "Does anyone have anything else...?" This is when my hand went up. She
looks at me surprised, "Sony?"
"Nope. Pentax."
Her look changes from surprise to an equal mix of confusion and concern. "Do you
/really/?"
"I really do."
Now, I am perfectly confident and comfortable in my choice of gear. I do not
feel embarrassed or ashamed. I also prefer to let my photos do the talking,
instead of the camera brand. However....sometimes, I just want a good
comeback. Something that demonstrates just how brilliant and
independent-minded I am in my choice, and how superior it is. What do you say
to the Canikon crowd to put them in their place? I would like to have
something ready to go when I go back tonight for the start of the Creative
Lighting workshop.
:)
Thanks!
Christine
