I will not be spending my money. However, I don't know where this 30D is going to fit anymore. Too much upgrading and it messes up the 5D or the new Mark III. Plus a 30 frame burst is pitiful when you compare it with the new Nikon D40X which will go for 100 frames before filling up the buffer. JBF

I think the Canon strategy after we have seen is re-develope the 40D (no more incremental models), and let the 30D finish its life cycle in between (18 months) to reduce stocks by rebates & kits. Next fall, when the substitute it will available, it would be an out of production item. Cheers

Happy Summer ! Sam Pah! Rumours, rumours! Whenever it is (if ever) released, I just hope it is a decent upgrade. And the price, why pay the premium (which does help to recover development costs). Pros or gear heads with cash will get "it" when "it" comes out but most astute peeps will wait until "it" drops in price. Gear | Surrey Wedding Photographer

pigtailpat Senior Member 982 posts Joined Apr 2007 More info | would have to be really spectacular for folks who just got the 30D (like me), to upgrade. I would probably wait a cycle or two. It took me 7 years (from 2000 to 2007) to upgrade from a P & S to my first dslr in April. So, it'll probably be quite some time before I plunk any more money on a body. I'm going to use the time to build lenses, build comfortable knowledge and skills, then see about upgrading in a few years. 1D-IIN, 30D, sigma 120-300, 24-105 IS f4 L, 70-200 IS f2.8 L, 50 1.4, 580 EX, Bogen 680B/3229
