50D -- will Canon ever catch up to Nikon's D300 line? by the time the 50D

May 14, 2008

is out, the D90 will be there to render the 50D as ho-hum, if the past is an indication of the future. Is Canon content to let Nikon stay in the lead in high-end crop cams? yuk..all they want us to buy into is FF?? duh... Nikon is enjoying the lead in this area, and won't wait for Canon to catch up. So what will it take for Canon to do more than one more small step in the lineup? And will they respond? I have my doubts, but Canon---pls. prove me wrong !!!

Have a great and wonderful Day !! Cheers !!
