I just put in my order for a 20D! I used the psjan code at B&H and got it for $1091.95. I can't believe I just spent that much on a camera, but I can't wait to start using it. I'm sure it will be a big upgrade from my old 300D. B&H still didn't have a pre-order for the 30D and I was tired of waiting. Hopefully they don't list the 30D in the next couple of weeks for $1200.

What I got:
20D
430EX
Sto-fen for 430EX
RS-80N3 Remote Switch (Why is this so much more than the DRebel remote?)
2GB Sandisk Ultra II

2-day delivery so I should get it Tuesday or Wednesday. :cool:

congrats and great buying there. My unit was about that price used only last october. The 20D was sold thru its first year at $1400-1500 and you got the same body nearly one third less.

You will love it. That's exactly the same upgrade I made early last year. Huge difference!

Congrats. Hopefully your shipping will work out better than mine did. I also paid for 2 day air, last Wed. figuring I'd get it by Sat. But no. I'm scheduled to get it tomorrow, the 27th.

You must think people are totally insane for buying 1D series bodies then. My next camera, baby. ;)

Not exactly true. UPS will deliver on Saturdays, but you have to pay for it...

Congrats mson! Good for you. I want a 430EX for my 20D too. I bought the Adidt remote instead, much cheaper than the Canon remote.

Congratulations! You're going to be so pleased with the 20D. I just ordered a 580EX to go with mine and should receive it on Wednesday.

Wow, this is something truly unexpected. I guess the announcement of the 30D was a "wait and see" for a lot of people, but didn't change any minds. People still wanted the 20D. I'm glad because I have one and I just love it. So sturdy and so reliable. I have been really happy with mine and the price is so great. Congrats and have a great time with it.

And fedex works on saturdays too but typically when dealing with larger companies they dont deliv. those packages on the weekends.

But i personally have never gotten a B&H package on saturday so in that respect...yeah

Totally insane? No. Have more money than I do? Yes.

Thanks! I really like the 30D, but I was tired of waiting. B&H still has not put anything up for pre-ordering the 30D. It looks like it will be 1-3 months before I would be able to get one, and I saved about $200. I don't have a camera at all right now so the money plus the added time shooting was the deciding factor.
