I am far from a tech or expert of any kind, just a guy who loves toys (and a wife that lets him) :) I have the Canon 20D and love it love it love it. The photos are simply outstanding. I already had the Rebel film camera, so wanted the digital for lens swapping capabilities. I like being able to take 20 test shots then switch to film, and know reasonably well what I'm going to get with what settings. Just wanted to express my joy of Canon. ~ Rich
