It would be like Canon to come out with a cheaper "300D" by Fotokina. > If correct, then Canon's announcement should be on August 20 'What they said. > There are some minor differences between the 10D and 20D: The flash now > rises higher, similar to the 300D, and the shape of the hand grip seems > slightly different, plus the corners are slightly sharper.
