You don't know that, but regardless, you have a more than capable camera.

Mark_Cohran Cream of the Crop  More info | Aug 24, 2006 17:06 | #17 It's nice that the price dropped, but it's very speculative to entertain the notion that it's due to the pending release of a replacement body. I think the 30D is way too new for that.....but, I've been wrong before. Mark

Ultimately it comes down to what you need out of your camera. Crypto wrote: 30 bucks is not really much of a price drop? The regular price is only 1194. It all adds up. That could be your shipping right there. Go UCLA

Aug 24, 2006 22:20 | #25 I would actually be kind of warry at a replacement to the 30D so soon. Would it be rushed and full of glitches? Possibly. Christopher J. Martin

Would it be rushed and full of glitches? Possibly. Now I would be excited if they did and probably buy one if it is a true upgrade to the 20D MKII camera but more MP is NOT what I need, I am running out of memory so fast. I think it is just a reflection of the times. At one point dSLR's were in the $2000 range so eventually I think they will be around $1000 for a 30D class camera. There's no need to rush. The 30D is capable of going up against the D200(albeit, it lacks a little feature wise compared to the D200). Go UCLA

More MP and bigger screens are NOT what photography is about. Thats the consumerism that we can't avoid because more MP and bigger LCD means more power used which means less pictures taken. Less pictures taken per battery means bad news when you run out of battery life in the middle of the Rockey Mountains or somewhere remote. Just saying is all. Well the D80 also was just released. In the MP wars, for consummers they can't have a camera being so low, even if its low priced. Now they have one that has 10MP's and it will be affordably priced. Heck the number have caught some ppl's eyes on this forum too. Go UCLA
