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.
