The new Rebel will be launched June 23 along with a new EF-S prime. The lense will be a 30mm f/2 with an EF-S mount. Canon held off on the originally planned 500D release due to the economy and waiting to see what Nikon comes out with……… They have a couple designs of the camera ready to go.
I'm not sure if companies can afford to “wait” to see what's coming, so I'm not sure what to make of that. I'm going to CR2 this.

EF-S 30/2 would be lovely! Give it the optical quality of the 50/1.8 but improve the build and AF. Price it at around $200, and that should be a winner!
I would definitely buy such a lens!
Pingback: Canon prepping a new Rebel, possibly named the 500D?
I couldn’t have stated it better myself…Started with the Original Digital reber, and cheap kit lens, bought the 50mm 1.8, quickly thereafter sold the camera and the lens, moved to the 30D and 50mm 1.4. And not much later, picked up the 35mm “L”, and absolutely can’t wait until I have my 5D Mk II to truly use this spectacular Lens, and also add the 50mm “L”. Nearly EVERYBODY passes along their humble beginnings…Well Put.
When the hell does Canon release 500D??
I’m gonna buy 450D!
