rushing a camera to a show and not delivering it soon after or if its an inferior model gets them no where. They just released the best overall camera available, its just not what you're looking for. We get caught up in the latest greatest item debate, but all of the current available cameras are more than capable of getting the job done.

Best for whom? Certainly not me because of the price. I believe the best camera released by Canon will be the 40D maybe in a year or so. That will be one I can afford.

It's kind of like saying the best car is a Ferrari but I can't afford one so the best for me might be a Chevrolet!

its the most versatile camera available. It can handle any situation better than any other camera available regardless of price point

If they lowered the price a couple grand then I would be all over one! But, that's not going to happen!!! So, I'll hold out for a 40D or 5D I guess! I would be very happy with one of the 2. The 5D is looking better!
