BD, the quote below is from a review on the luminous landscape site. The
dpreview preview said...

'Interestingly to support EF-S lenses the mirror box and mirror are
smaller than the 10D, this won't of course make any difference to the
image as the imaging circle required for the sensor is smaller than 35
mm. It also doesn't appear to have had any detrimental effect on
viewfinder brightness.'

Perhaps we should wait for the camera to be released and try it for
ourselves ;-)

Steve

I agree you should look for yourself, but the dpreview reviews have
prove over time to be extremely even handed and accurate.
