"If you spend at least $599 on a camera, you're instantly transformed into a professional photographer, and now you have the documentation to prove it," a Canon spokesperson said. "In a lot of professions, you have to take classes or practice for years before you truly become a professional, but not in photography. Just buy one of our budget to mid-range cameras, and you're in."

(ps consider the source when reading news) I thought this was funny. Just like a new batch of professional photographers each year over the holidays when people get new DSLR cameras as gifts. 

Wait,

What???

...my dslr also take stills except video?

Yay! Cool!!!!!



(Loved the "now you can make a free WP templated {[name] photography} site!")

LOL!

Wow, that's so cool!  Who would have thought that it was that easy!

Probably just an easier version of their CPS certification in the past, which was solely based on how much gear you bought.
