canon uk just announced the 2000D and 4000D £369 and £329 . Anyone short on cash can now afford a new dslr .

Just might inject some new life into the forum, yes they are basic but the 2000D has the 24mp sensor add to that the cheap 10-18,18-55 and 55-250 you get a great start for not a lot.

What's the point of the 4000d? PLASTIC MOUNT? Recycled 550d parts? In 2018? For more than the 1300d? Its not April yet, Canon!

The point is to sell to thousands of customers, none of whom are you. A DPR forum user getting worked up about the shortcomings of the 4000D is about as meaningful and productive as a sports car enthusiast railing against Toyota for releasing yet another revision to the Corolla.

By the way, in a telling move, Canon didn’t bother to give 4000D a press release in Japan, likely meaning that they don’t even plan to try to sell the model in this market where people are a) psychologically less likely to buy the lowest-priced model and b) more likely to buy mirrorless than in other countries anyway.
