Wow! Canon is really going at it now.  The D series revolution is going crazy, just after releasing the Canon EOS 50D, they come out with the Canon EOS 60D – at the same MSRP price? Why Canon?  I have been a big fan of the 1D’s series and I am glad you kept the 1Ds Mark II around for awhile and made it an amazing camera and I did really enjoy it and I know technology is coming out so fast and we need to keep up, so I hope the Mark III 1Ds will be around as long as the Mark II 1Ds has.

I just feel bad for those who just purchased the Canon EOS 50D, knowing the Canon EOS 60D is the same price and of course has a higher and new technology built-in to it, naming a few:

1.  )Max. aperture TTL metering with 63-zone SPC with the following selectable modes:
Evaluative metering (linkable to all AF points)
Partial metering (approx. 6.5% of viewfinder at center)
Spot metering (approx. 2.8% of viewfinder at center)
Center-Weighted average metering

2.) Total pixels: Approx. 19.0 Megapixels: 5432 (H) x 3492 (V) pixels

3.) Effective pixels: Approx. 18.0 Megapixels: 5200 (H) x 3462 (V) pixels

Oh well – Technology as we all know it, travels so fast that we as the consumers are constantly on the chase.
