(some random japanese page i found when i googled it)

It looks nice.. as far as i can see .. since the overall blackness makes it hard to fully see what it looks like ... i wouldnt mind one ^__^

im suspecting that thats not what it looks like

Hm... truth or rumour I wonder?

Oh, so it's D20 and not 20D?
hur hur

I read on another forum that that picture sdi FAKE FAKE FAKEEEEeeEeEEeeeeE
It's for the D2000
I might go for 20D if its cheaper than 300D llolollbahah

Wow, adam... you're becoming more like peter with your typing

no .. i think i learned my typing off adam ...
its just that he doesnt use his MSN type typing here. ..

I've heard, (but cant be sure), that the 20D (?) is an 8mp version of the 10D.
If this is true, then I wont be trading up, but it may cause a flood of perfectly good 2nd paw 10D's to appear on the market, which would be interesting.

I think adam's confirmed that it's fake...

But just going off the naming standard - the D at the front would indicate another of the D100/D60/D30 line right?

D at the end would be like 10D, 1Ds, 300D... ah I dunno..

I knew that someone would comment about the way I wrote that
haha!

Nonono.... I knew the pic was a fake, as I saw it weeks ago on a British site. The story of the 8mp version however, seems to have credibility.

Wah! You guys were right!!

I spotted this over at our friends -- PhotographyBlog -- apparently Canon USA have dropped images of the D20 into their pressroom -- ahead of the coming press release I presume!

Droool...

Wow .. if thats the kit lens.. thatd be nice ... IS USM =P~~~~~

Haha, somehow I don't think so...

Too bad ...
theyd get alot of sales if it was ..!!

So, the cat is well and truly out of the bag.
Todays press articles show the camera, and all the spec.
I wont be bothering............

Not that good is it?

No.
A bit of a let-down really.

Doh, I'm wrong again... they sell an IS lens as part of a kit?

Quote:A bit of a let-down really.

Anyway, Rufus, care to elaborate with that statement?

Regarding that I.S. lens.... It may be part of the kit, yes.

I'm disappointed because,

1/ 8mp isnt a big deal after 6mp.

2/ Extra focus points? Hmmm, I only ever use one. So do most users.

3/ Digic 2? Nice, but how many of us shoot 5fps often in reality??

4/ EF-S lenses? No thanks. What happens when we buy full frame, 'eh?

------------------
I personally wanted to see FF sensor. That's what I want. Maybe more mp's, say 10 or 12, on a FF sensor. Never mind the bells and whistles, dont need them at all.
I.S. on a short lens, once again, no thanks. This dog isnt conned by sweeties. (Biscuits maybe, but not sweets).

Lol Rufus... biscuits eh? Full frame sensor would be very nice indeed. No more problems then with 1.6x focal length multiplier / FOV crop / whatever you will.

Well, full previews of the 20 are popping up everywhere, and, whilst I agree that it is a significant improvement, I dont think it is enough to sway me.


What about you?

Waves a bicuit at rufus...
i wouldnt mind to up my 300D ...
but dont have the funds ...

Canon releasing new things all the time it's starting to become just another common occurance
haha
My current camera suits my current needs, actually, it's features saturate my needs..I don't need another cam, though I wouldn't mind having one.

One thing I think is certainly better over the 300D is the near-instant switch on...
