Infosyncworld.com has just announced the launch of Canon’s latest mid range DSLR that will replace the Canon Eos 40d, the 15-megapixel 50d.
At first glance it looks the same as it’s predecessor, upgrades to the megapixels and the image sensor being the most noticeable. It sports a new 29-320mm equivalent all-around lens which will appeal to those photographers who hate switching between lenses. The ISO range has been bumped up and a few of the features from the Eos1. So in summary that’s it, expecting to retail around £1000 for the body.
Should I wait or just buy the Canon Eos 40d?
Recently I’ve been looking at buying a DSLR, windling down the available models to a 40d or a 450d (both Canons). After spending 1 hour in Curry’s yesterday trying out both models, I decided I like both, for different reasons, so said I’d return the following week after I had a thorough think. Now thanks to this new announcement regarding the Canon Eos 50d I’m back to square one, not knowing what I want.
Is it worth waiting for the 50d?
Is it worth spending that extra money on a 50d?
Is it worth waiting for the Canon Eos 40d’s price to fall?
Is it worth it at all? Meh!
Decision
I might get the Canon Eos 450d now, it’s alot cheaper, has more megapixels, cheaper accessories and currently has a £50 cash back deal!
Let me think about!
