I b*tched slapped my wallet today...picked up a second 30D and Canon 400mm 5.6 for sports. Thinking about ditching the 20D and going exclusively with the 30D twin combo. A 5D would be nice though...we'll see.

Was it your wallet or your CC you slapped? Cause the CC will forgive you but your wallet may not. :lol:

I actually believe it's just the opposite. Your wallet will have a short memory if you paid cash.

If you used CC, like I love to do and see nothing wrong with, you'll be paying for it for a long time to come.

But who cares? It's only money. Or plastic. Congratulations.

Enjoy while your on terra firma. Life is fleeting. Who knows what tomorrow brings. Live it up while you can, say I.

I am just curious, why a 5D would be nice for shooting sports? I would think that the faster frame rate of the 20D would be the way to go, opposed to the 5D.

Maybe you shoot more than sports, I don't know. I am just curious.
