DP Review提到以下資料: New features / changes compared to the EOS 20D
* Redesigned body (more EOS 5D like) * Larger LCD monitor (2.5") * Soft-touch shutter release button * AE/AF lock remains set if shutter is kept half-pressed between shots * Faster startup and wake from sleep times * Direct print button on rear of camera (woo!) * Spot metering * 100,000 shot shutter cycle * ISO selectable in third stop steps * ISO speed shown in viewfinder as you change it (still not once changed though) * Selectable 5 or 3 fps continuous shooting * PictureStyles instead of simple image parameters * 9,999 images per folder (instead of 100 as per the EOS 20D) * 15 menu languages (3 new) -- 繁體中文也有了!
* Excellent resolution, a match for the EOS-1D Mark II * Good color, virtually identical response to the EOS 10D, lighter overall tone * Now trademark Canon CMOS noise free 'silky smooth' images * Very low noise levels even at high sensitivities, fully usable ISO range (100 - 3200) * Excellent long exposure capability, better with noise reduction on (some black pits) * Near-instant power on time, more responsive overall, reduced write times * Five frames per second continuous shooting, up to 23 JPEG in a burst * Another step improvement in auto focus, 9 point, noticeably faster, better in low light * Dual-purpose buffering means there's always space for the next shot * Good metering, but still no specific 'spot metering' * In-camera programmable 'parameter sets' to control image processing algorithms * Selectable color space (sRGB / Adobe RGB) * Now supports new smaller EF-S 'digital' lenses * Very solid body build, feels extremely robust, almost a 'baby EOS-1D' * Built as a Digital SLR from the ground up * Much less of a 'dust problem' than CCD-based digital SLRs * Remote capture software for studio setups * Playback magnification up to 10x (perfect for checking focus), easier panning (joystick) * Excellent battery life, light weight and small batteries (now more powerful) * Very good supplied software suite (EVU, DPP, Remote Capture and Elements) * Higher pop-up built-in flash, should make red-eye less of a problem * E-TTL II flash metering, includes distance information from lens * USB 2.0 Hi-speed connectivity
Conclusion - Cons
* Opening the CF compartment door shuts camera down, loses any buffered images * Average automatic white balance performance, still very poor under incandescent light * PowerShot-like sharpening algorithm (same as EOS 10D) could be improved * Not a major leap forward in output size, this is not a reason for 10D owners to upgrade * No spot metering * Louder shutter release noise * Can't adjust continuous shooting frame rate (always 5 fps) * Flash sync 1/250 sec (compared to 1/500 sec for the Nikon D70) * Confusing sequence of lights in AI Servo auto focus * Still only five levels of adjustment for image parameters, should be more flexible * Only 1.8" LCD monitor (time for a high resolution 2.0" I would think) * ISO sensitivity not displayed on viewfinder status bar while being changed
