Right, but don't expect a magnesium alloy body, but rather a plastic body that may feel a bit "cheap".

Low end does not mean low quality. For example in Canon-land you get the same sensor, and essentially the same output, from the 550D, 600D, 60D and 7D. Where they differ is not directly in the imaging capability, but the functionality you get around it. The differences between current and previous generation sensors are generally pretty small in the big picture, however much people on the internet may exaggerate every little difference. Generally speaking, don't emphasise image quality too much providing it is "good enough", but consider the camera functionality and availability of lenses that may be desired in due course.
