No real reason for this, I just dont see it at $999.

Price is $899 for body.
Then I'll have to see what kind of pictures it takes...
At 8mp and a 899 price I'm not expecting much, but then it IS a Canon, and
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a GOOD one.
This is a source for consternation...
One major camera company comes out with a 4mp DSLR for $3500
Another major name brand comes out with an 8mp DSLR for $899
How to choose, how to choose.
Apples and oranges, the Nikon D2Hs is designed for photojournalists, it's
really fast, has a huge frame buffer, and excellent image quality. I have
seen images and you would have sworn it was film. The Drebel is a consumer
level camera, with a so-so lens but is cheap. It's like comparing a Honda
Civic with a HumVee. Both have different niches.
