Simon's Camera in Montreal is currently selling the Canon EOS SL1 (a.k.a. 100D) for $429.95 before tax, free shipping in Canada (at least, to NS).

I just bought one to compare it with the EF 70-200/4L IS to the Fuji X-E2 + 55-200 OIS.

I predict that the Canon will have the better optics, but the Fuji's files will be nicer, especially under duress

I picked up a refurb SL1 from Canon as an interim camera while I wait to see what happens in September. I've been happily using my 20D and was interested to see what difference almost 10 years would make.

"Pleasantly surprised" is a good way to put it. I haven't had a desire to grab the 20D since I've had the SL1. Which the exception of noticing some buffering lag, the camera is just a great little machine in my opinion.

Only drag so far was putting my 300 f/4L on it (well...actually you put the body on that lens lol) and getting consistent "error 01" problems (lens contact issues). Never had this on the 20D or my 1D, and after testing the lens out again on the 20D-still no problems. I have had no other issues with any other lens I own so we'll see...

For $400 I'm not sure I'd be comfortable asking Canon for much-if anything-more out of it.

Just checking their site. The deal is indeed there. I haven't looked at this body much but it looks like a decent travel camera. What is this company like? A certified Canon dealer?

Simon's Camera is two of the best four camera shops in Montreal (Simon's has two shops and Camtec has two shops). They've been there forever.
