Despite the increased resolution, this does look very interesting - the improved weatherproofing and viewfinder stand out as some very useful improvements.
So does this mean the end of the XXD line? Or will they still bring out a 60d at another time? To be honest, I would have really liked to have seen Canon bring out a 10mp APS-C camera - surely with the advances since the 40d, we'd be getting significantly improved ISO performance at this resolution? What's more, the buffer would probably be able to handle a decent number of RAW images. At the moment, it seems to me that they are increasing the resolution and adding some new gimmicks, but things like ISO performance and buffer capacity at this price level are just staying the same.
