    Hi guys,

    It's out and here are the details of the NEW Canon Digital Rebel XT/350D.....



    Photo and more details at the PMA website.

    Some details..

    - 8MP
    - DIGIC II
    - E-TTL II
    - Selectable focus modes (One-Shot AF, AI SERVO and AI Focus)
    - Mirror lock-up
    - 2nd curtain flash
    - 3fps for 14 shots
    - 0.2 second statup time
    - Writing to memory card is 3.5 times faster
    - Improved flash at guide number of 13 and higher from optical axis with FEC function

    Besides ISO3200 and the buffer,the 350D has almost the same specs as the 20D.

    By the way, the vertical grip is BG-E3, NOT BG-ED3 (although it looks like)! And the new grip can accomodate 6 AA batt as well.

    With this release, Canon now has the leading performance camera in every D-SLR segment in terms of spped and resolution; all launched since January last year:


    • EOS-1Ds Mark II - 16.7 Megapixel full frame 35mm sensor, 4 fps


    • EOS-1D Mark II - 8.2 Megapixel APS-H size sensor, 8.5 fps


    • EOS 20D - 8.2 Megapixel APS-C size sensor, 5.0 fps


    • EOS Digital Rebel XT - 8.0 Megapixel APS-C size sensor, 3.0 fps


    Prices not released at this point in time, but should not be too far from the Canon 300D.

    For those still looking at the Canon Digital Rebel/300D or the Nikon D70, here's something to mess up all your previous research and start all over again.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    Does that mean you are going to buy one for even less than you sold for? If so, then that's a really good deal!
