No need to agree with me Tom, I stated my case and presented what I read to support my case. I will base my decision on reviews and opinions like Donald's. I just don't think that the camera that you are obviously very happy with, will suit my needs. Even you admit that there is a problem, I personally prefer not to have to "repair" images in Paintshop or Photoshop, to me it is not what the camera saw when the shutter clicked. And if the 10D doesn't suit my needs, I won't buy it either! I recently had what could have been two beautiful sunrise pics that I took that were underexposed on the digital. Rather then keep and try to rescue these images, (Donald and I played with them) I trashed them. Just my way of thinking I guess. I think it has something to do with the perfectionist in me. Brenda :)
