Hardware/Equipment related news Canon has announced on 14th Feb. a new version of ESO D20 specially suited for astrophotography: ESO D20a. Read the details inside...

The new camera is named ESO D20a (I have reported this in the forum section). The camera has 850M pixels and Cut-off Low Pass filter to enhance the recording of 656nm H-alpha 2.5x of the D20. But this camera will only be available in Japan.

For more information , go to the following web-site(Japanese): http://cweb.canon.jp/camera/eosd/20da/catalog/index01.html
[ Google translation to English here ]

Canon has also announced an upgrade version of the famous EOS Rebel(also known as EOS 300D). The new Digital Rebel XT(or EOS 350D),has 8M pixel APS -size sensor area, mirror lock up, Digic II, monochrome (but still Bayer design sensor arrangement), lower noise, fast start-up time, USB2.0, faster processing speed, slightly lighter and smaller than 300D.
