My local camera store called me today 3/23 and told me they would be here tomorrow afternoon around 3. So, I imagine they will be out much earlier than 2 weeks. I will be picking mine up tomorrow, and I am in Kentucky. JBF

You are quite right. However, I sold my 20D to finance the 5D. Now I miss my 1.6 Crop for birding, wildlife, etc. It will make an excellent 2nd body. I love the 5fps also. JBF

The crop factor, pretty much JUST trims your pictures, whereas the FF is fully there. Canon EOS 350D (Silver) | Canon EF 18-55mm | Canon EF 75-300mm F/4-5.6 III | Lowepro Micro Trekker 100

It turns a 300mm into a (reaches for calculator) 480mm In 1934, Yoshida succeeded in producing a prototype of the first domestically made 35mm focal-plane shutter camera. A believer of the Buddhist faith, he named it "Kwanon" after the Goddess of Mercy, and placed an advertisement for "Kwanon Cameras" in the June 1934 issue of Asahi Camera magazine. - Canon Global History Page - Current Equipment FS items https://photography-on-the.net …/showthread.php?t=1228198
