Canon EOS 50D; Canon EF-S 15-85mm F/3.5-5.6 IS USM;

this is stitched -- I don't know whether this disqualifies it...

But of course the logics of the free market are not always logical....
Apparently the logistics of producing high technology gadgets aren't logical, either ;)  High ISO comes hand in hand with high resolution in most all cases.  Even if ISO isn't "great" you get far more detail to fight noise with.
I think it's rather the problem of doing something better versus doing something new. I have worked in software development for thirty years now. The new stuff always wins management over....

EOS Bodies / Re: Sick and tired of rumours

I don't know about everyone else but I'm becoming incredibly bored with all the different rumours that never come to anything. They must be just made up. It's about time we had some hard facts. Come on Canon I can't wait much longer to upgrade my mediocre 7D. Just a full frame camera that is as good as the D700 would do me fine, otherwise I could be joining those who have jumped ship.
Ken.
oh, if you're tired of your 7D, I'll take it. or was that just a rumor?

I'll probably not have the money to chip in on those machines, but I would want a FF with not more than 18mpix but iso quality bordering on nightvision. They should leave out all the gimmicks no one really needs (except marketing departments and those nerds comparing useless features, they'll never ever use (correctly)).

there's one point in favour of manual mode that is really important:
you can learn from the mistakes you make. the cpu will make he same mistake over and over again.

for me it would be ok, if my 50d hat no program wheel on top...

How ever would you manage to take portraits without Portrait Mode, or shoot action without Sports Mode?   ::)

damn, where did I put the manual? does it really take portraits automatically? even if there's no one around? I have to check this... this could boost my output massively!

for me it's quite simple: I always use manual mode, that way it's my fault if exposure goes wrong. and if it's right I know I'm the one who did it (and that's what I want: me taking the pictures, not some smart silicon chip inside the camera doing it for me)

for me it would be ok, if my 50d hat no program wheel on top...
