Canon open the stable doors and lead out another 15.1mp enthusiast level thoroughbred today, in the form of the Canon eos 500D. (EOS Rebel T1i for the US market) I have been right through the comparison guide between the 50D and the 500D and there are not that many significant changes, but there is video and lovely 1080p video at that. The EOS 500D is a stainless steel / plastic moulded camera whereas the 50D is (almost twice as heavy) a magnesium alloy bodied dSLR.
With my comparison to the EOS 50D up there, I should point out that these cameras are aimed at different markets with the EOS 500D | Rebel T1i being an entry level dSLR or, if I may, a high end beginners dSLR camera with video.
Amazon already have the Canon EOS 500D | Digital Rebel T1i listed.
