Poll for 10D users only!!!

same here...i rather go for 1 big improvement,... then a lesser one... to me... the Mks... are more of the "pro" range.... crop factor of a 1.3x is reali good compared to 1.6x then...again... price is problem too... if prices is good... i will definately go for a MK a the near future...! lets just kepp our fingers cross!

Agree...

I personally felt that changing from 10D to a 20D is like changing from a Toyota Altis to a Subaru WRX. Some improvements but not much. However jumping into a BMW/Merz/Posh (1DMKII/1Ds) is a real upgrade.

My 2 cents....

With that, it would give you a '1' series... so far I know only '1' series except the 1Ds will have 1.3x crop factor...

I know ......but put in short what I trying to said is......

The 20D looks fantastic, but it's not a compelling upgrade for 10D owners.

The improvements in focussing are well received, but the crop factor remains at 1.6x, and that is what ruins it for me. I don't need more megapixels; I need my wide angle lenses to act as such.

bruther....why not get sigma 12-24... quite solid mah that lens.... but the front elements thingy abt that len turns me off....i`m worried i would spoil the lens....thats the reason why i hesitate to buy it...

I have the 10D. Yes, I bitch about the slooooowwww start-up time, the sometimes cranky AF, slow CF write speed, "tiny" buffer of only 9 frames, the initial "blurry" screen when playback images, and all of its other idiosyncracies. And you know what? I still love it to bits.

20D? Nah, think I'll give it a pass. 1D MK2 looks like a much, much better choice, and my next upgrade will be that.

will skip 20d and save for mkII

so many ppl aiming for the 1 series, i hope canon makes a third tier pro series (aka EOS3) on the digital body, that what i aim for, 1DmkII prices are a certain turn off!

Have to wait for Nikons to match Canon's offerings.... heard that D200, DSX..etc are coming out next year.

Also, other manufacturers are joining in the fray :thumbsup:

Other than features... I'm sure they also compete in price point... else, price difference between bodies may cause people to switch sides. :think:

The 20D will make a good backup for those using the 1 series when they need a lighter body. It has a faster frame rate than the 1Ds and higher resolution than the 1D; it also has better high ISO performance than either of them. For a 1DMkII owner though, there's not that much reason to pick up a 20D.

i'd probably pick one up if the price settles around 2.5k.
