So only about a 18 months to wait til the 50D 
The 5D is due a MkII pretty soon looking at that, it's going to have a lifespan longer than a 1 Series camera come February.

I have a 20D.

The main improvements from my point of view are the new sensor, the larger screen (1.8" 118,000 pixels to 3.0" 230,000) and Live View. Shame it's a little larger and heavier. I think I'll stick with the 20D and look into getting a longer lens.

AF button! Sweet! Thats just what I wanted. Don't need a custom function anymore! Altough the 1 Series is my next move so it wont really affect me but its great to see the 40 have it.

Great find. I certainly wouldn't be suprised if this turned up in one of the new Nikons.

£175 per unit - I might buy one
What other features? No doubt compatibility for mountain bikers?

wez130 said:hmm, looking at that price on DPreview, it's €1299, (£850/£900), that might sway me more towards a 30D, i was hoping it'd come in around £700, unless the import supplier on ebay can sell it for that price.
It will be at £700 in about this time next year, the launch price for 30D was around £900 too so this isn't really a surprise, more expected. If it did come out at £700, I'd be getting one too ! It's one of the reason i am holding off upgrading, it is literally £350 more than i paid for my 30D, not really £350 worth of upgrade (to me) in the 40D to justify it.

I do think it is worth 900. I upgraded from the 20D to a 30D because I had to and it wasn't really worth the upgrade price but I do feel the 30 - 40 is.
