canon400d2A few days ago, we featured the Digital Rebel XTi. While there is yet to be any official word from Nikon US, Canon China's site has given us a peak at the said camera (known in China as Canon EOS 400D digital SLR camera, and in Japan as EOS Kiss Digital). This camera is said to feature a 10.0 MP sensor (APS-C 1.6x crop), anti-dust design for sensor cleaning, 9 point autofocus system and a buffer for 10 RAW images or 27 JPEGs.

The camera also sports a 2.5" LCD with 230K pixels, 1/200 sec flash sync, and boasts of shooting 3 frames per second. While its being a 35mm digital camera is but a speculation at this point, it is also reported to have a 1600 ISO setting, DIGIC II processor, and the Canon EF lens mount, which apparently is for the two new lenses (the EF 50mm f/1.2L USM, and the EF 70-200mm f/4L USM). For this camera, CompactFlash format is retained by Canon for memory storage.

» what?

Ok that article made little sense, It shows the 1.6x crop factor (so the sensor is the same size as the 350D) Yet then it says this...

"While its being a 35mm digital camera is but a speculation at this point"

Not exactly sure what that means, but its definitely not full frame, and its definitely a DSLR (EF lens mount... interchangeable lenses obviously).



And also 1/200 flash sync is pretty weak, they need to get with the program and get 1/500 at least.
