I hope they improves the white balance though. I found the color is often inaccurate in many circumstances. focus is another thing, since I use manual all the time, it does not kill me yet. and the spot light metering can be worked out by taking test shots. but, the inaccurate white balance really bothers me. It is not much off, but slightly off. I always spend time on correcting the colors. sigh... now I understand why dpreview said 350D has an average AWB.
