"The largest group of failures through were among the Canon 5D MKIIs. Of the 26 samples of this camera onboard, one quarter (six) failed at one time or another, and while three recovered, the other three never did" (26台同行的5D2中,6台出現問題,其中3台後來有恢復,但其他3台掛點)
"The 5D MKII's are not rated as weather resistant, but then neither are the Sony A900's. I deliberately allowed both of my A900 bodies be exposed to the rain for two days ashore to see how they would stand up. There were no operational difficulties. " (5D2和A900都沒有標榜抗候性。但我讓A900淋雨兩天,機器沒問題)
I also have used the Sonys back here in Toronto in snow storms, (unprotected), both before and after the Antarctic trip, with no ill effects. " (在南極之旅的前後,A900在沒有保護的狀況下於多倫多的暴風雪中使用,沒問題。)
