[font color=\'#000000\']..Nope, moved again.. I think someone at Canon is going to get into real trouble for leaking this so early in the game? Either that or Canon has a lot more stuff up it's sleeve for Photokina. Traditionally, a few days before the event they'll come out with their new camera or lens line-up.  I'm hoping that some of their re-designed primes will be announced.  
Not to avvert attention from the 20D, but any ideas as to what else is in store besides?[/font]
[font color=\'#000000\']I sort of think this is not an goof up by Canon, but a tactic. Over the last year, every major DSLR release they have had was preceeded by some "leak" on one of their websites.

They're probably playing games.

I want to hear about lenses as well. I have a 10D. The 20D is not the least bit motivating. Nor are the EF-S lenses.[/font]

[font color=\'#000000\']Any gossip of whether the EF-S lenses are going to fit the 10D?  Since the kit lens for the 300D does not, that could be a nasty way to encourage sales of a 20D.[/font]

If the new 10-22 EF-S fit the 10D, Canon would sell less 20Ds. It won't fit, by marketing mandate.

There is a guy who has described a way to take a hacksaw to the back end of the 18-55 EF-S to make it fit the 10D. I suppose he will follow suit for the other new EF-S offerings.

I wouldn't even consider this. Very bush league. YMMV...

Oh, and if I'm wrong, I'll buy the 10-22 lens immediately.[/font]

[font color=\'#000000\']After all the fuss and comment about the 'focus problems' with the 10D, now that the 20D is here nobody has yet mentioned whether the new camera has fixed this problem for good.
And what will the new 20D do to the price of the 10D I wonder.
