20D or 30D

Why are some people treating Spot Metering as if it's the Second Coming?! It is just one of the 4 metering method that can be used for exposure. You DO NOT use spot metering for everything do you?
I voted 30d but only if you can swing the extra cash.
If you used the large 2.5" 230,000 pixel screen it is tough to view the 1.8" 118,000 pixel screen of the 20d. I also enjoy the 1/3 stop for ISO, quieter shutter, fast burst (at a constant) and some other minor updates.

i would like to point out to everyone that this thread has been pulled from the grave yesterday, and is several months old. and from the sig of the OP it appears he already got the 30D

One of those flashbacks moments. Bell bottoms anyone?

Oh my, at least I was well down the line. How the devil did that happen????
Well I hope he is enjoying the 30D.

Just remember that it is the lens that makes the difference. If buying a 20D will allow you to buy a better lens than that is the way to go. And don't buy cheap filters. The body actually makes the least amount of difference in your picture quality.

I'm thinking of a 10D or 20D poll.

Yeah, but still some relevance. I found it quite useful just now for helping me decide to pick up an offered 30D to augment my 20D.
