The Canon EOS 450 was announced today, and now DPReview has made a preliminary review of it. I’m sad it doesn’t go past 1600 ISO. Nikon is going for high ISOs now, and Canon has pretty much stood still since I bought my 20D. My wish for the next camera (Canon 50D?) is higher ISO with low noise (low noise at 6400 ISO, boost ISO to 25600 ISO. I can dream, can’t I? But Nikon has low noise up to 3200 ISO so Canon should do its best to do better) and sensor-based image stabilizing. If you need to cut back, Canon, I can do without live view. :-)


Time Machine included in Leopard backs up your ~/Library/Caches unless you explicitly ask it not to. Just something to make a choice about when setting up your hourly backups. I do my backups to a remote disk, so I certainly would not like to every hour have my last hour of browsing backuped. ;-)

The one thing I don’t get with showers is why there always is water left in them. I mean, I get the physics of it, I just don’t understand why I can’t just press a little lever on the shower battery and make the remaining water flow out in the drain. Then I can be sure that no water will slowly go out of my shower and make a damp bathroom, chalk stains or grow bacteria after I’m done showering.
