Editors' Comments

Canon has delivered another blockbuster with the Canon EOS 20D SLR, which comes equipped with an 8-megapixel image sensor, improved burst shooting mode, and a new autofocus system. The 20D sports a number of other notable improvements to the design of its predecessor, the EOS 10D, including substantially faster startup time, better low-light performance, and a smaller and lighter body. Ideal for photojournalists and other serious photographers, the Canon 20D delivers professional performance at a price that even amateurs can afford.
