Good synopsis.
I'll add the 6.5 fps as a "notable" improvement.

I didn't go through the spec list and add those things yet.
30D is 5 fps actually, but I guess that's still a good 30% faster!

It's a good point, though, I guess it's maybe a minor improvement over the 30D

Ewwww, first big camera bug found.
Someone put the "Bigma" (the Sigma 50-500) on the 40D. A couple hundred shots later, their mirror is triggering uncontrollably once the battery is inserted. (even if the camera is off).
Oh well, can't be bleeding edge without some bleeding........

well i would assume the issues are because its an aftermarket lens? maybe a reflash from sigma on the bigma would help?
whenever that is sigma comes out with one for the 40D

...but if you look at the little box to the right, it says what jup posted. Wish they'd make up their minds.

I guess they're selling them for Photoworld, who has them in stock...you won't get free 2-day shipping thru Amazon that way. Amazon is selling & shipping them from their own warehouses as well...not yet in stock. That's my read, anyway.

If you delay ship times or get bad feedback, amazon will drop you as a vendor.
So it should be OK.
In other news, I drove to the store today and grabbed my camera.
I need to play with it a bit before finding something interesting/different to say about it.

I don't know, I'd like for it get out in the open first, see what others are saying. I guess since Adobe hasn't put out their upgrade yet. I can wait.

First impressions:
It looks okay, slightly bigger than the previous models.
It weighs about the same.
They moved some of the labels around, but nothing that's too confusing.
I'm pretty comfortable with Canon's layout though.
At the store, I already saw people holding it at arm's length, and just looking at the back....... aigh.
Anyway, enough about the box, I'll try out the camera tonight....

this is taking longer than expected - i'm making a highly amusing video review. :P
Live view sucks the hell out of your batteries. Sucked down a full one in an hour.

Sweet! Looking forward to it.
You've escaped your neg rep by a slim margin, sir.
(Good thing I won't be using live view much... )
