This will be typical..dealers will hold out for the max price to milk the gear geeks.....then expect a quick drop as they scramble to attract the cost conscious photographers who may or may not upgrade...depending on whether the enhancements are worth the additional finance...

Hell...some photographers might think a (cheaper) s/h 5D is a better proposition (as they fall in price thanks to the mk2 model!!


I can wait... In the meantime prices will drop and others will do the beta testing for me

it here. First impression: i like it. I don't think it will have major upgrade over the 40D but since i use this mostly for birding, i don't pay attention to low iso. Huge LCD with better resolution.

new kid to my family.


Bubble,

Please keep us posted on how the 50D focus is for moving objects. I am considering the same combo you have.

I currently have the 1DSmk3 for my main camera and have my 1DSmk2 as backup. If the 50D is good for Birds in Flight, and Sports, then I would sell the mk2 and get the 50D.

Wow, that was pretty quick. 30 days or so from announcement to in stock. I hope that means the 5DMK2 will be in stock in 3 weeks!

don`t sell the 1dsmk2 or you might well be sorry mate. I still say that in a lot of ways, with the right lens on the 1dsmk2 is a really good compromise.

Just checked my Amazon order - "Items Shipping Soon" Which means in the next day or two usually. Yeah. Change that to "Order ShIpped" !!

NO THEY DIDN'T. Where are you getting this from? Release date, according to CANON, is late November. Until they say otherwise, that is the date.

I was in a photo store yesterday when they unpacked the 50D's from the first shipment.
They let me play with it, and it seemed nice, with a nice LCD (dare I say nicer than the D700's LCD we also had out?). However, still felt a little cheap compared to my 1D MKIII.
