p.1 #1 · New Canon model....


Just heard from an impeccable source - new 350D (Rebel XT) Replacement soon to be announced -

called the 400D, 10MP, 9 Point AF, 2.5" Screen etc. Available in Black & Silver as per 350D.
That's all the specs I have - 10MP is the interesting one.....where does this leave the 30D ??

I just heard from an impeccable source that Canon's also releasing a 18-400mm f/2.8L IS zoom by the end of this year. The MSRP is $1290, we'll see how it sells. An interesting lens indeed. I'll have to make sure it gets added to my collection.

Oh? They have them in stock already and it hasn't even been released at Photokina yet? Interesting indeed!

Not very exciting. If the price is $499, then it would be a sweet camera.
8mp to 10mp is a small jump.

Thats not so abnormal, if they plan on a mass release right away, would be logical with a low end camera the cameras should be starting to go stock around the world know. Aint something you ship in a day ro to...

I have no clue if what is stated is true but it being in stock and not yet released is not that uncommon.

8mp to 10mp is a big jump for uninformed consumer fools.

No realistic way for a 18-400 f/2.8(!!!) - the EF 35-350mm goes f/3.5-5.6L.

f/2.8 for that zoom-range would be a technical wonder (that might be, but not affordable ;-)

What is the US version going to be called? 90% of the time people refer to the 350D they actually mean an XT, so are they finally going to unify the name? I see so many times people advertising the 350D for sale and I think 'that would be cool' but only to see that they really have the XT.

The lens sounds sweet but if it were true, the price would be way more than that. Also how big would that sucker be?

If the 400D is true, and I think it's very believable, where does that leave the 30D?

OK, it'll have a 2FPS advantage + bigger buffer, spot metering, and presumably less noise!!! Apart from that the advantage is minimal.

The jump from 8mp to 10, is not enought to be concerned about. You'll see a bigger difference in image quality in the lens that you use.

Uninformed consumers think megepixels is the way to judge image quality. There is so much more that goes into it.
