Alright, so I know I was seriously considering one of the 5D full frame cameras, given the insanely cheap price point they’re at now. However, for those of you considering an SLR anytime soon — the new 40D from Canon is seriously drool-worthy. (Yes, Drool worthy. So I’m a geek.)
They’ve added live view (Frame shots in the LCD) to the thing, and the base 18-55m lens now has IS capability. WTF!
My 20D is starting to show its age.. *ponder ponder*
Oh, and of course they announced a 12.1 MP version of my canon Elph with SD capability too. Augh, and I just bought mine! … I forsee lots of selling on Amazon soon.. >_<;;

I, too, long for an upgrade. However, despite it’s age, my 350D is holding up well, and by the time I can justify an upgrade, the 50D will be coming along. LiveView is a nice gimmick, but I’m actually interested in the sRAW feature. It’d be nice to have extra room for those vacation snapshots without the need to comprimise edit-a-bility.
