Is kind of like:

XS (1000D)
XT/XTi/XSi/T1i (350D/400D/450D/500D).
30D/40D/50D
7D

But the Canon tiers mostly come in between the Nikon ones, both features and pricewise. The 7D and D300s are probably the only two tiers that are strictly head-to-head.

The Canon 1000D is sorta-kinda between the D3000/D5000.
The Canon xxxD dRebels are sorta-kinda between the D5000/D90
The Canon xxD prosumers are sorta-kinda between the D90/D300s
I think looking at the model timeline templates on the wikipedia is a useful way to compare camera lines:

Template:Canon DSLR cameras - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template:Nikon DSLR cameras - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template:Pentax DSLR cameras - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
