In terms of high ISO performance, 7D >> 40D, 50D > 20D >> 10D. So, you have other cameras to choose from. You can also consider 450D and 1000D.

not sure what can a dual processor cam do to the noise level..
 

My feel that the EF-S 15-85 will costs around $1,100++. In this instance, I would rather get the EF-S 17-55mm f2.8.
EF-S 17-85mm f/4.0-5.6 IS USM RRP S$1,199
Price for the older lens...

Check out the noise review. Its ISO1600 is clean, ISO3200 is usable. ISO6400 is still ok at emergency. ISO12800 maybe for 4R prints.
 

Hi, I have 5DM2, should I downgrade to 7D because of its great improvements over its predecessors.

If you need what the 7D has that the 5D doesn't (1.6x reach, improved 19pt AF, 8fps, 100% VF, 24/25P video) then by all means, get the 7D. Else, I think the 5D2 is still a notch better than the 7D in terms of FF, DOF, MP and IQ.

There are many comparisons on the 7D high iso performance already on the web so you can have a look and decide if it's really that much better than your 10D and worth upgrading to. Personally, even if you don't shoot high ISO very often, the rest of the other features and improvements should be worth the upgrade from your 10D.
 

most likey willl change to the new 7D cos my 350D is going to hey-wired soon ........ :P

dual processor for noise reduction? I thought it was to speed up image processing to give 8fps... well maybe finish up the noise reduction algorithm faster if that is turned on...
 

Official price from Canon SG is $2699, plus it is a new product so $2.4k++ is considered good discount IF it is not grey set

Discount? :dunno:

$2,699 is the suggested retail price which only big stores like HN, Courts, etc will sell at. Most other stores like Cathay Photo, MS Color, AP, etc will sell at $2,400++.

Waiting for the body alone set to be launched. No point getting the EF-S 18-135mm. Canon should not come out this lens at all since it already has the EF-S 18-200mm. I rather buy the latter due to longer reach. Yes, no doubt that the price is higher but it serves the purpose.

I think that is provided you purchase with the 18-135mm kit lens at around 3.1K and then manage to sell off the lens later around $650.

I think they are just trying to match Nikon, lens for lens in the APS-C arena. :bsmilie:

Sound quite true. Canon is following Nikon in many aspects.
