Nice little Hands On Review of 20D & Comparison to 1D MK

[Persian-Rice]

Saw this over at the FM board, nice review by a sports photographer, who shoots with the 1D MK I and now using the 20D.

He ran the the comparison during a football game. He also has a bunch of shots from his test.

Ya I think its a firmware issue, lets hope it is at least. Not sure if and when Canon will be release a solution to this.

As for negative reviews, most I read are very honest ones. Being critical is the best way to get problems and concerns out there to the public. Getting reviews that the things is fast are good as well, but many give the impression that the thing is fastest camera ever made, but when you get the more critical ones, like from the guy who wrote this, where he own and has used better and worse cameras, it put the speed in to perspective.

Cheers. I rather here a harsh review then a good one, that what I know if and what problems I may be dealing with.
Canon does a good enough job giving their camera a good review :D
