Our inaugural whisper this season comes care of a forum poster at d-spot.co.il, who according to Canon Rumors' tipster has been accurate in the past (at this point we've been unable to corroborate). Here's the deal: a Canon (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Canon/) 60D and Canon 550D / 600D (i.e. Rebel (http://www.engadget.com/tag/Rebel/) series). Both apparently feature a 15.1 megapixel APS-C sensor, articulating screens, and 720p video at 30 frames per second. The 60D, however, can also claim 1080p footage -- odd that the Rebel doesn't, since the current T1i has 1080p (http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/25/canon-eos-digital-rebel-t1i-now-official/) -- an electronic level, and a new battery and grip compared to its 50D (http://www.engadget.com/tag/50D/) successor. That one's apparently priced at around $1,190 and due out in May, while the other is $799 with no connection to a release date given. Make no mistake, between this and those waterproof Sony point-and-shoots (http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/21/sony-dsc-tx5-waterproof-camera-sprung-from-a-leak/), this is only the beginning.Canon prepping 60D and 550D / 600D with articulating displays?
