Dreams can come true…

For the photography gear aficionados anyway…

Every year it seems some new upgraded piece of gear graces the markets, and this year has been no exception. Canon released it’s new professional grade EOS ID Mark III earlier this year, and it seems now that the much-rumored 40D (a new body intended to replace the only 2 year old 30D) is less of a rumor than we thought. Additionally, the EOS IDs Mark III also seems to be getting some press from Canon in photo-circles too. All this on top of the software releases that have confounded the market we discussed earlier. I myself had been debating getting a 30D if and when the 40D comes out. With the technical data out on the 40D now (thanks to Amazon), and the minimal price difference between the two, I will now likely go with the newer body on its release given the higher pixel count, network wireless capabilities and much much more.

All the details are here:

ETA:  The Amazon page has been pulled…my guess is someone from Canon got in touch with someone from Amazon and said “No!”  More info can be found in various forums, including our own at www.scphotogs.com/forums
