    It doesn't matter if its a DSLR, TV or razor blades. The companies are allvery strategic in releasign new technologyand trying to always keep up with latest and greatest is fun but expensive.


    I have a T1i and it would be great to have a T2i but so far I have been extrememly happy with my T1i so until the days comes when it's not meeting my needs I think I'm going stoick with it.


    (but it would be nice)

    Hehehe very true. I wouldn't suggest killing for a 40D. Maybe you'dkill for the Canon 1200mm... then when you get sent to jail you could use it as a bazooka and blow a hole in your cell wall to escape.

    Well according to DXOthe T2i actually has slightly better noise levels.

    That would have saved me a few stressful editing sessions this past senior portrait season as it was my first. Before every shoot I would repeat over and over to myself "frame loose frame loose". But then again, I guess it's just part of it all.

    That's promising, but DXO doesn't measure gain imbalance or Fixed Pattern Noise. If they did, they would have two dynamic range measurements:
    • Dynamic range: 11.7 stops (but you can't use it, because of the Fixed Pattern Noise).
    • Dynamic range you can actually use: much less than 11.7 stops
