Canon has launched the new EOS 50D

Well… to all Canon fans out there, here’s a new toy for you! It’s an upgrade of the 40D.

Here are the specs:

  • 15.1 Megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor
  • 6.3fps continuous shooting, max. burst 90 JPEGs with UDMA card
  • DIGIC 4 processor
  • ISO 100-3200, expandable to 12800
  • 9-point wide area AF
  • 3.0” Clear View VGA LCD with Live View mode & Face Detection Live AF
  • Magnesium alloy body, with environmental protection
  • EOS Integrated Cleaning System
  • HDMI connection for high quality viewing and playback on a High Definition TV
  • Full compatibility with Canon EF and EF-S lenses and EX-series Speedlites
Here’s the link to Canon’s page.

At the end of the day, to me, it’s still a 1.6 crop factor camera, and the viewfinder is still small. Not my cup of tea man.. I have moved to the “Dark Side”…. Nikon makes bigger viewfinders.. something Canon still has never matched until today.

    but in one sense you are true…….canon has overdone their marketting, and always not being generous in their functionality…..very bad
