Default Canon 40D

O.K., just for the fun of it.

You are the person in charge of creating the Canon 40D for release in September.

Will it be revolutionary? Evolutionary up from the 30D? Your bosses tell you they want a winner...just as big as the 350D XT.

What will be the specs?

What will it be and how much will it retail for?

Again, just for fun.

Oops, haven't been on this forum long enough to realize there already is a rumors forum.

12 mega pixel, 1.6 crop, digic 111 processor, 1 button iso selection, 5fps, inbuilt wireless tx, better indoor white balance, better positioning of DOF button and focuses where your eye does. £1200.00
Id buy it.

2) 10.1 MP sensor with DR increased by 2 stops compared to 20D.

4) 5 fps for 10 frames
5) a 40De version with Eye controller focus release 6 months later
6) 2.7" high res screen - 310,000 pixels. OLED?
7) Same shutter found in 30D
same dimensions as 30D
