Sorry for missing the walk, Jason. Unavoidable things came up - I'll shoot you a message offline and we can catch up for some lunch though.The 50D - definately a reality when it's on Canon's site, although it doesn't mention release dates, prices, etc. An interesting move for sure, especially considering that the 40D hasn't hardly been out for a year.Personally, I would have rather seen an upgrade to the 5D or a better-priced, full framed Mark series camera.One promising thing, though, is a claim to better ISO performance, clearly to try and compete with Nikon's D3 and D700, both of which rock when it comes to performance at high ISOs.
