Finally…this has been on Canon’s drawing board for years. I thought they were going to release it last March, but it looks like it will be next week sometime. This could be the Nikon killer as it is weather sealed, has a jaw dropping 3 inch monitor, 10 + MP sensor, sensor cleaner, and live view capabilities. The only things I think Nikon does better at this point is its spot meter, (1 degree instead of 3) and its flash systems, and Canon is catching up quickly on the flash systems. One of the very best wedding photography teams I know of recently made the switch from Nikon to Canon, and I only know of 3 wedding photographers who still use Nikons.
I cant wait to get my hands on one of these new 40 D’s!
Ok Amazon says the 20th and interal stuff at Best Buy says a week eariler… Who knows?
BH Photo is listing them as being available in September.
