Looks like the post-Christmas sales are getting into full swing! Price at B&H and amazon.com for the Canon 40D DSLR is now down to $1149.....

Oh, the temptation.......

Chuck, I posted a thread on renting Canon and Nikon lenses. You can also rent to Canon 40D from the same site.

Thanks, Kim!

Go for it Chuck, you will never look back!!! I just love mine.

Thanks, Kim!

Chuck, I thought I had seen you post that you wished you could rent one to check it out. That was the main reason I posted the link. I should have titled it Rent the 40d to get your attention sooner.

The big international PMA show starts the end of this month in Vegas - so if it is anything like last year expect to see a lot of new model announcements in the coming weeks ramping up to the show. And then of course at th show there will be even more being introduced. All of which causes a quick price drop in the now "old" models.

ETA - just popped over to popphoto.com and new camera models are already being announced.
