Not only are you going to a smaller body size but a smaller and dimmer viewfinder. The D80, like the 30D, uses a pentaprism while the Rebel series uses a penta-mirror. I would suggest you reconsider and get the 30D instead if cost is not a problem.

However, i love the size of my xti, i don't want a bigger camera or a grip, too heavy. Tina

packetloss Mostly Lurking 19 posts Joined Apr 2007 More info | You made the right choice. I purchased the XTi because I prefered the way it felt compared to the D80, 30D and the D200. The quality of the pictures will be just as good as any of the other cameras as long as you have a good lens (which you do).

Once you fall in love with the 24-70L and it's on your camera 85% of the time the difference in camera weight seems to get lost anyway.
