I've been pleased with mine thus far for portraits and weddings. The difference in its images and those from my 20D is quite noticeable.

I got mine yesterday...DHL had promised to deliver by 3 PM (I should have known better!!!) so after waiting and waiting, left with it at 5:45 caught the train which had to back into the station and finally got home at 7:30!! So after walking and feeding two pretty pizzed off dogs, got to look at it and take a few snaps! First impression...WoW! That view finder is like the big screen of camera land!!! Will use it tomorrow when I shoot Aikido.

600 marching band photos with a 40D and a 70-200f/4IS and crappy lighting. I love being able to shoot in jpegs and have them sharpened and saturated like a P&S - saves a lot of time editing piles of pictures like this

Interesting statement. What types of differences are you noticing?
