The British Journal of Photography posted their unboxing slideshow of the Canon Rebel T1i/500D. Granted it appears to be one of the preview copies (note the hand written label on the CD).

(found on pocket-lint.com)

Digital-Photography-School.com has released their text preview. One thing they point out that I’d seen before but forgot to mention: “Any Canon photographer can register for the CANON iMAGE GATEWAY service, which allows access to the latest EOS information, useful updates and exclusive EOS content – plus tools that allow users to create their own video podcasts and store images online.” As well, they mention lens compatibility: “Compatibility with the full range of Canon’s EF and EF-S lenses and EX-series Speedlites.”

Yet another video preview from Cnet UK

A text preview from the Guru of 3D

DigitalCameraInfo.com has a pretty thorough preview with their own samples.

The Washington Post has a report out this morning.

On a ‘news’ note, it appears that one of the usual sites that gets pre-release cameras was somehow slighted by Canon on the 500D release. Thanks to 1001noisyCameras for the tip.
