This kind of overhype of new cameras happens on all new releases
Remember the \"50D is 1 stop better than 40D\" farce?
Or the \"5D2 is 2 stops better than the 5D\" farce?
Nothing\'s really changed...it\'s just that some tend to be sucked in by the hype with new cameras.
Take the 1D3 for example. Many objective tests have shown this camera have be cleaner than the 1Ds3, 40D etc etc. Suddenly the 5D2 comes out and it is \"2 stops better\" even though the sensor is similar to the 1Ds3. Now we have a 7D that has come out which is suddenly cleaner than the 1D3 as well.
I don\'t have the results cause haven\'t updated my DPP yet, but when I tested the 7D against my 40D, the 7D had stronger shadow chroma and luminance noise than even the 40D, let alone the 1D3

Yes. What about them?
The 50D has them too - and the the pixel level, where microlenses are applied (you see, you don\'t apply a single microlens to a 50D image), the 50D is worse than the 40D.
lol I remember when Canon was making a bit announcement about them - turned out to be all hot air and no substance where the 50D was concerned imo
