Of course this guy is different. No doubt that he's privy to information that nobody else has. After all, he's a camera shop owner.
But, keep guessing long enough and keep posting these ridiculous rumors and sooner or later somebody will get it right. And when they do finally guess right after two years of rumors, there are those that will see it as proof positive that rumors are based in fact.
Don't we have anything better to talk about ?
Good luck. ...Show more →
I have to agree I am sure the good people at Canon run right out and tell only a few special shops. I hope it's not true I am enjoying my 30D to much and if a 40 comes out I will have to run out and get one. Damn just what Canon wants

But i'm not the kind of guy starting rumours.... My sources are very very serious
EVERYTHING is a rumour until it officially is announced by Canon.
I mean, it's obvious there will be a 40D to replace the 30D. But when? THat is the magic question...
As for your source saying it'll be announced July, well, that's a guess anyone can make. But my guess will be August, since that's when Canon usually announces their products for Photokina.
Bottomline, anyone that claims they can tell you when it'll be announced and what the specs are, they're full of crap. The people that do know are under non-disclosure agreement (NDA) and they obviously won't tell you or start rumours.

Almost everything.
I do believe the Sales Reps have an idea to give to their accounts "when" the new models will be released!!! No, not specs. It is coming soon....in that part of the market share, Canon is taking a hit. Nikon is all over with NEW DSLR's...just my thoughts.
Eh, I have a 20D and honestly can't imagine the 40D to be a wow or a must buy item for most of us. If you've got an older body I just can't imagine (after the 30d release) that it's going to be evolutionary. Just pick up a used 5D or Full pro body and be happy.
stits, I think we are due for a couple features that are worth upgrading from a 20D. No doubt it will have better AF, larger LCD, digic 3, and hopefully ISO 6400.

A 5D is a wonderful upgrade from an older body, IF you shoot Weddings, etc...It is too slow for sports. I myself would love to have the 1Dxxx, however I am small and size/weight plays a role. A DSLR on the line of a D200 would be up my alley. Yes, I prefer to wait for Canon.
Knowing the "New" model will be out soon, I will wait!

Totally dude. I mean, he's not a rep - otherwise I'd really listen!
Unfortunatly, I like rumor, it’s fun for me at least. Im waiting this announcement as well, not for 40D or 5DMK II, but for new lens that will be launched with… any rumors? ei ei

I thought that 5D will be next to update, and xxD series after that...
Not very likely. The 5D has no competition, but the 30D is getting hammered by the D200. I wouldn't expect a replacement for the 5D until PMA next year at the earliest.
To be honest, I think we'll see an upgrade for the 1DsMarkII before a new 5D.
Leaked details about the latest model—the 40D—are making the rounds. The Canon EOS 40D is predicted to sport a 10.1-megapixel image sensor, a 2.5-inch display and some sort of anti-dust feature. For the most part, thats all that's been leaked thus far (even this picture is a mock-up), but it wouldn't take much to assume that it'll cost about as much as the current 30D, or about $1,300.
If Internet moles can be trusted, expect to see the compact flash-friendly EOS 40D on September 26. – Nicholas Deleon

Cumon 18-200 IS
how about a 100-300 F4 IS as well.....!!!!
Yes, I like Rumor too. Bring them on! The 20/30D is very old, and almost the same camera....Maybe live view, upgrade on the auto focus.......
*12mp sensor (Doesn't make sense for Canon to release a 10mp sensor when the competition will be updating there current 10mp models to 12mp during the production life of the new model.
