Nikon did not steal Canon's thunder this time.

ohh yea about the video

its at 720p 24fps and with Mono sound.

• File format AVI (Motion-JPEG)

• Maximum single clip length: 1280x720/ 5 minutes, others 20 minutes

if its anything like canons P&S cameras, those files are going to be huge!

Well, it's not a Canon EOS Digital Camera--so it's going to Talk About Photography.

Yeesh. Feels like there's been a fair few new cameras of late... particularly on the Nikon front!

This seams like a return to the status quo between Canon and Nikon's mid-range.

50D > D90 > 450D

Just like a few years back when

40D > D80 > 400D

It's still the top-end where the two are really duking it out, and where, as everybody here has said, Canon needs a 5D mkII and a 1dn mkIII to keep up with Nikon's D700 and D3.

The only place Canon has the lead is with the 1Ds mkII, but a D3x is reportedly on the way.

Taking the broad view though, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

You mean a few weeks ago.

Yeah, that was the status up until a few (months, when 450D came out) but I was referring to the beginning of that cycle when all those cameras were new.

Either way, you take my point, I'm sure.

40D isn't discontinued.

D700 competes with 5D successor.
D300 competes with 50D.
D90 competes with 40D.
1000D/450D competes with D60
