Canon 20D is coming!

[absolut]

I might try to pick up a used 10D once they start hitting the market. I forget, does the 10D still have the plastic body?

no it does not have a plastic body.

Good deal. That's one of the few drawbacks to my 300D. It's solid, but still has a bit of a plastic feel to it. If I can snatch a 10D for cheap, I might go that route at some point.

So...when the 20D comes out, I assume the base price of the 10D will come down, huh? Any educated guesses as to what it'll drop to?

 

[doxx]

last price for the 10D is around $1,300. The 20D will go for $1,500,
my best guess would be $1,300 to $1,400 street.
The 10D will drop another $100 to $150 and that's about it...

To save a few mor bucks - watch the refurb & used market - many
people will jump on the 20D. photovillage (great dealer!) in NYC had the
10D refurbed for $999

Heard there is a B&W mode.

When I was working at the camera store I was under the impression that the 10d would be discontinued.

Yup; I just talked to some folks at Roberts' Camera in Indy over the weekend, and the 10d already has been discontinued.
