I haven't found any real information on the weather sealing on this unit. I keep hearing "improved" weather sealing...how improved? I believe the 40D has sealed battery and card slot doors. What else is sealed on the 50D? Why do I seem to be the only "amateur" who is interested in weather sealing? Anyway, this unit seems A LOT more impressive than the D90 for a variety of reasons. Looks like Canon is really making an improved mid-range SLR and Nikon is just making a pricey gadget for the P&S crowd. I'm waiting to hear more about this camera, its making me a little nervous about my descision to purchase a K10D or K20D soon. The 40D wasnt enough of a step up for the price but this camera looks sweet. The only reason I want to buy the Pentax now is to be cheap (cheaper body upfront and of course in-body IS therefore save tons of money on lenses down the road). The 50D seems like a better system to invest in however. I wonder what Pentax has up their sleeve?
