Specs have been announced (or leaked) on Canon's follow-up to their 40D dSLR, the 40D Mk II.
These are from http://www.canonrumors.com/2008/10/13/canon-40d-mark-ii-cr0/
"New 12 MP gapless microlens CMOS sensor which employs the 5D markII improved output amplifier, and a more advanced color filter with superior light transmission
- Digic IV
- 100-3200 base ISO, expanded L1- 50, H1- 6400
- Liveview with new more advanced algorithm contrast based AF with tracking capabilities
- Movie mode, with the ability to use the upper mentioned contrast AF
- 5D Mark II LCD
- 5D Mark II battery system
- AF Microajustment
- Fulltime Weathersealing
Everything else, same specs from the 40D…"
The rumormonger there compares this to Nikon's D90, but quotes no price. Maybe—just maybe—this is a camera comparable in price to the D90, but with less rolling-shutter …?
