Forget the Canon and get a Pentax K-x…it blows away the T1i at a fraction of the cost.

I’ve now received Christmas catalogues from a couple of photographic retailers in the UK. EOS1000D featuring in both. If the 1500D was going to be released in time for Christmas 09 I would thought they would have held off to the launch date.

Also, the Autumn UK cashback offer is only on the 450D and 500D – so no trying to shift remaining stocks of 1000D there.

Probably getting too late now for Christmas, I guess the next opportunity will be CES. Still googling daily though :-)

So then I am not the only one holding my breath for the announcement and doing daily google searches!

I thought this was all about Christmas 2009, myself. Time is indeed running out, Crosstalk. I’ll hold my vigil until November 7, or so, then call it off. The only thing that keeps me hanging in there with a daily Google for ‘Canon T1 1500D’ is the fact that the Olympus E-600 (a slightly de-featured E-620 for the Christmas shopper) isn’t on the street yet either.

if there is any link between whats going to be announced tomorrow and this camera, then its the direct print button. it also may turn out to be just another false rumor or something not so exciting. not camera-related most probably anyway.

That’s true, as in it doesn’t affect RAW ISO performance at all. However, it does affect jpegs, for what it’s worth.

Tomorrow could be the day – 9/29 was announced earlier. I think we will see only the 1500D and no new 1 oder 3 model.

Canon will settle on a digic 4.5 and 1080@25fps as a compromise. the camera will sell like cheap biscuits.

Thanks traitor

‘only’ 12MP? I think that if the megapixel war is fought somewhere, it’s at in cheapsumer department. They don’t really care about ISO until it’s too late, but want a camera that just has nice specs.
My guess :
15 MP, Digic4 and 1080p20 or Digic5 and 1080p30. (depends on whether they can pump out enough Digic5 chips for the masses). Oh, and add a swivel screen, fancy things FTW :(

Many expensive lenses, they are not IS
Canon EF 400mm f/4.0 DO IS USM
Lol.

Most of these lenses have short focal lengths, and thus less in need of IS (despite the general idea that every lens should have IS, or it’s ‘wrong’), the other lenses are older, or special (TS-E with IS? That’d be weird).

Calling the 50 f/1.8 expensive is also a bit odd…
