Hi Henry, I don't doubt that Canon USA supplied correct information to B&H but somewhere there was a mix up. It happens all the time and is not a big deal as the manufacture's site is the reference you should be using for confirming details like this. Any on-line retailer's catalog is really only for use as a guide though I would hope that they are trying to show accurate info and I'm certain that B&H has only the best intent here. Both pieces of information are incorrect per Canon manuals and web site. Both the EOS 10D and EOS 300D/D-Rebel are capable of 36bit color (12 bits per color). Now that B&H knows this they should change the data on the web site to prevent confusion of both their OWN people and existing and potential customers.
