The rumors are spreading on Canon’s possible answer to the Nikon D40.
And they’re getting more official, as a photo publication is now reporting on the 1000D. Here’s the information from Electronista…
Canon is working on its own answer to Nikon’s low-end D40 cameras, a publication claims. PHOTO says it has obtained data on the “EOS-1000D” (not pictured), a model which would represent a new, cheaper entry pointfor Canon’s DSLRs, and combine technology from its two most recent low-end models, the EOS-400D and 450D. The publication notes that it would further resurrect a designation used for old EOS film cameras, much as with the 1D and 300D. Nikon’s D40 cameras were created for amateurs just entering serious hobby photography.
The magazine reported that the camera will have a 10.1 megapixel sensor, 3 fps shooting and seven autofocus points. Doesn’t sound too shabby…
