Most of those people don't no better when they do they get the 5D.

more possible leaks:
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/pocketli/20...d-57dbc65.html

Canon has already suffered one leak with its as-yet-announced Canon EOS-40D digital SLR when the model appeared on an association PictBridge certification list, but now American retailer Best Buy has also stuck the boot in.
(Advertisement)

An insider at the company has leaked info about the camera's stocking code that reveals the DSLR will hit shelves in the States on September 2nd.

Specs-wise we're looking at a 10.2-megapixel sensor, a 2.5-inch LCD display, an ISO range from 100 to 3200 and the 40D gets the more recent DIGIC III imaging processor as well as a dust removal system, true spot metering, and a five frames per second burst rate.

The price Best Buy is showing for this new offering is $1,599, which is expected to be the official RRP, but no info provided about a lens included in the price.

Pocket-lint.co.uk will be attending Canon's Autumn collection press event on the 20th August - so fingers crossed for an official announcement then.

I was excited, but the rumors have been a bit of a let down. I hope there's more to it then that. It doesn't sound like enough improvement over the 30D. If that's all it is I'll wait for the 50D and work on my glass collection... which I should do anyway, but that's not as fun as a new body.

As good as I'm sure this camera will be, I'm not sure it'll be enough to cause me to upgrade my 20D. We'll just have to wait for the reviews, I guess.
