What's interesting is that the model name in Japan is the EOS Kiss 5. It's
clearly not situated between the -3 and the -7 and doesn't replace the A2
or 5e. Take a look at this home page.

It's in Japanese but it looks like Canon copied *some* of the features of
Minolta's extended information LCD back. Sadly not all of the coolest
features, though (zone metering, etc.).
The Kiss 5 / 300V seems quite neat! It may be a perfect 2nd camera or
holiday camera.
Cool features added to the Rebel 2000 / 300 / Kiss 3:
* Superimposed 7 focusing points, faster focusing
* LCD back
* 2.5 fps
* metal lens mount!
I wonder what the MSRP/street price will be? The release date in Japan is
9/21. What about in the U.S.? Henry?
