Geert Koning Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! http://www.robgalbraith.com/bins/multi_page.asp?cid=7-7891-8214 "just" an update of the 20D 8.2mp, digic II see Rob Galbraith for all the details Feb 21, 2006 at 07:11 AM

tuannie Offline Image Upload: On finally 30D !!! At least canon listened and add all the features we have been asking for. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:15 AM

Reijer Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! Well, definitely not the changes that makes me want to sell my five months old 20D But glad there is a successor I can upgrade to in a year or two... Feb 21, 2006 at 07:22 AM

justruss Online Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! It's true, they got the iso thing right this time around. But I am underwhelmed by this replacement. I wonder what got tinkered with regarding the autofocus algos? Feb 21, 2006 at 07:23 AM

mike todd Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! Any information about the lenses other than the 85L II? Edited by mike todd on Feb 21, 2006 at 02:32 AM GMT Feb 21, 2006 at 07:24 AM

Ariel Bravy Offline Buy and Sell: On finally 30D !!! That's sexy... The list of features that attact me the most are: ISO selectable in 1/3 stop increments ISO visible in viewfinder Spot metering Folder can hold 9999 folders 11 frame RAW burst Verticals rotated, but not on LCD 11 shot buffer for RAW (instead of 6) Direct print button... just kidding!! This looks pretty nice. It's like a 20Dn, with some very handy upgrades. The added features look pretty useful and make picture taking easier. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:27 AM

Yeah, nice..but vastly overdue. Almost all of those are found on my 1D Feb 21, 2006 at 07:28 AM

ChaseH Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! I am dissapointed, but hopefully there are a couple good lenses besides the 85L II. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:30 AM

tuannie Offline Image Upload: On finally 30D !!! We will see...I am selling off 1D bodies to "downgrade" to 5D so 30D may not be a bad idea Too bad for those who are selling their 20D early before the announcement...I bet some of them are regretting letting their 20Ds go for cheap. I always stay out of discussion about rumors and always wait for the actual announcement. I can't help but laugh out loud while reading about the 30D, almost all of the rumors and discussion about the 20D replacement have been wrong! An unexpected upgrade!

Evolution Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! So now that this is out of the way, when does the Rebel series get an upgrade? I don't need all the features of the 30D or even the 20D, but I sure could use a larger viewfinder. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:34 AM

Film_Ruled Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! Yawn! The buffer would be nice but I just use my 20D as a backup now anyway. I wonder what else is in the pike? I might be more excited if I did not already own a 20D. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:34 AM

emgvod Offline Buy and Sell: On finally 30D !!! ok, I'm not exicted..... Wonder what else they have up their sleve in the way of new bodies if anything... Feb 21, 2006 at 07:35 AM

jfulton Offline Image Upload: On finally 30D !!! Yawn. I am SO glad I've held onto my 20D. Now the new 85L... hmm Feb 21, 2006 at 07:36 AM

Me_XMan Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! I see old 20D's going for around $800-$900 with this announcement. See the difference between 1D2 and 1D2N? $1K for that? Feb 21, 2006 at 07:36 AM

henryng Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! Is the 17-55 2.8 coming? The 30D still has the 17-85 and the cheapo kit lens attached on the photos. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:36 AM

jamato8 Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! I hope that the mirror slap is quieter. This is one reason I didn't like the EOS 3. In my work this is important. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:37 AM

talexander Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! wow... unimpressive. This deffinitly isn't worth an upgrade for many folks from the 20D although I have to wonder about the "improved" shutter durability of 100K, the rebel was rated at 50, so they saying the 20D had same durability as the rebel?

Evolution Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! jamato8 wrote: I hope that the mirror slap is quieter. This is one reason I didn't like the EOS 3. In my work this is important. Agreed. One of the reasons I came back to the XT is because the 20D mirror slap was REALLY noticeable indoors. I bought it for the improved low-light focus, but the attention it got me everytime I snapped a photo wasn't worth the tradeoff. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:39 AM

Me_XMan Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! 30D will have rebate and discount and the price will come down to $1100 IMO. Cheaper to buy 30D than 20D. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:41 AM

pangwinking Offline Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! I really don't see why everybody is so bummed about the 30D. It fixes every problem everybody ever had with the 20D. ISO in the VF, 1/3 ISO stops, deeper buffer, etc. I bet the focusing has improved to, just like the 1D2 vs the 1D2n. So it doesn't have 12mp, so what? Feel the need to go buy even bigger cards? It may not be worth upgrading for, but there's not doubt that it's far better than the 20D for people that are just jumping into the game or switching from 300D/10D. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:43 AM

Tim My thought exactly. I read that the 20D is already at 100,000 Feb 21, 2006 at 07:43 AM

gyapp Online Image Upload: Off finally 30D !!! A big yawn to this update. Not really worth it for 20D users to update this unless the files can show a huge significant of cleaner files. For current 20D owners, IMHO it's wiser to wait till 2007. Feb 21, 2006 at 07:43 AM

You know Canon could release a firmware upgrade to give the 20D many of these abilities, but there's no way they're going to do it. Anyone want to be the first volunteer to try and use the 30D firmware on the 20D? Feb 21, 2006 at 07:44 AM
