I have a very old cannon AE-1, that this is built like a rock, very nice camera, just wish it could be digital :(

That said, the EOS line is Canon's entire lineup of SLR's at this point. So it encompasses everything from "enthusiast" cameras to pro-level stuff. So Engadget *could* have, if they so chose, had an image with one consumer camera and one pro camera, from either era. But they didn't; both of those cameras fall in the "enthusiast" category. The 40D is *much* better built, though.

Here's a page with some more shots of the EOS 650: http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/eos/eoscamera/650/

And the 40D: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos40d/page4.asp

You get a good look at the all-metal construction at that link.]]>Dec 20th 2007 11:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/
btw, i was shocked when i held my friends 10d and realized it had a metal body! canon needs to stop weakening their mid-to-lower-end products to try to get people to by their highest end gear.]]>Dec 21st 2007 8:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Dec 21st 2007 11:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Dec 20th 2007 7:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Dec 20th 2007 7:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/

SONY has Zeiss brand NOT quality, sony really fcuked the zeiss quality & just ripping the brand.

@LeiAtLarge - Jealous much? You're right though--it won't help me, but I don't need it. I actually just picked up this kit a few months ago. Before I used a Rebel XT w/ 28-105 and 55-200, before that a Sony Cybershot V1, Sony Cybershot P32, P31, and a Kodak VGA 15 minute battery life with 2mb memory back in 1999. Use an Elan 7n and a camera I built myself for 35mm. I've also used large and medium format for class. I've used plenty of crappy equipment in the past. Now that I'm nearly graduated and a pro, I'm making enough money with my photography (and graphics design) to buy the pro equipment. I wasn't trying to brag, I was literally just cleaning those before I got on here and was showing my Canon fanboism. Canon is my mom! Apple fanboys talk about their fancy stuff all the time and nobody says anything.

Emmett Gowin was lecturing at my school a few weeks ago and our photography club took him out to dinner. The topic of equipment came up, and he acknowledged that the camera doesn't make the photographer. The camera's job is to get out of the way of the photographer, to make it as easy as possible for the artist to achieve their vision. Be it large format, as he enjoys, or the new appeal of digital photography.

This is a quote that I follow, by Brooks Anderson, about the camera: "The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking." Whatever I'm using, be it my 40d, my grandpa's Cybershot W7 or a pinhole camera, I always strive to keep on looking. Another creed I follow, of Ansel Adams, "There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs." Some people are born with it, others aren't. I know where I stand, do you?]]>Dec 20th 2007 10:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Dec 20th 2007 8:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Later, in a financial rut, I gave the now-expanded camera package to my son for Christmas.
Now his ex-girlfriend has it.

Too bad the lenses are so costly...]]>Dec 21st 2007 12:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/
Yeah, the lenses are super costly. It's worth it when you get a good lens though.]]>Dec 21st 2007 9:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/
But to be accurate, the newer maybe smaller, because the sensor is smaller (remember 40D is not full frame... while the 650 was -of course-)
So the best side by side comparison should have been EOS650 vs EOS5D.]]>Dec 21st 2007 2:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Dec 21st 2007 7:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/Dec 21st 2007 9:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/20/canon-ships-30-millionth-eos-slr-10-millionth-eos-dslr/
