Pierre,

Press release from Canon.com dated today -

http://www.canon.com/ir/release/2010/p2010feb08e.pdf

This one is a game-changer, the end of an era, we'll never look at our D-SLRs the same way again, I literally cannot contain my overflowing levels of excitement, am currently dancing around the room counting my pennies for the developments this will throw up in the next few months.

Holy crap! I can't believe they actually pulled it off. Goodbye Nikon. Goodbye Sony.

Nothing can happen to something that doesn't exist yet

DPReview are pretty reliable, I think it's as true as possible. Also on British Journal of Photography, they add..

The 550D will retail from 24 February. Prices start at �800 (body-only) or �900 with the 18-55mm lens and �1100 with a 18-135mm lens. The double lens kit will retail at �1200.

Just seems odd for it not to have appeared on any Canon sites yet.

Apparently

In all seriousness, can anyone confirm whether or not the 550D made an appearance at the advertised event?

Sorry, I meant "wonderful pocket photographic machines"

, I'm sure they are amazing tools

... Sorry, I'm a bit disappointed as I was expecting (silly me, I know) a 1ds4 ....

I wasn't expecting a new 1ds4, but at the very least something more apropos to the tag line "canon at the movies". You know, something that will be used for more than capturing a 9 yr old blowing out birthday candles.

I'm sure all the indie filmmakers are going to dump their 5d2's in favor of the t2i.....
