Well, I broke down and bought the 30D. After holding it in my hand, I could not resist. Stupid sexy body.

MichaelC Mostly Lurking 13 posts Joined May 2006 Location: Chicago More info | I did exactly the same thing myself on Memorial Day week-end. Walked out with a 30D instead of the XT I went in there for. So far, I'm plenty pleased. I specifically asked the saleman NOT to take that Canon 24-70 f/2.8 L off the shelf. Holding that sucker could have been my ticket to the guest bedroom. Canon EOS 30D
