A couple of new cameras announced today:

Canon 50D:

Nikon D90

Nothing super exciting in either of these. I think everyone's hoping much more for a successor to the 5d, which I think is likely to come out at Photokina next month.

I am looking forward to the 5d succsessor. Can't decide whether to hold out on a new camera body until then or just go for the 5d. (Yes I know bam you think it isn't as good as teh 40d)

Too many to list!
ahhh.. but it is...( as good as the 40D..actually I think better..LOL) Gena.. if the succesor to the 5D comes out, then the price on them should really drop.. so you might be able to pick one up for less $.. I wouldn't trade mine for love or money.. I can't explain it.. but it's the closest to shooting with film that I've found in the digital world..

When I went to B&H photo in Feb. I was able to play with both but because of the price on the 5d I paid more attention to the 40d. Then I did some playing at a Mike's Camera here in CO with the 5d and I fell in love too. Just didn't let my self commit to it because of funding!
