Used the 20D here this afternoon and will use it again tomorrow. It's for taking pics so why would you use anything else. If you use a SLR or DSLR for 25 years they become a natural.

Already have one that is like new (other than this mistake) and can probably get it fixed cheaper than 409$. I'll get it fixed and in the meantime order a 30d and use the xt as a backup.

Both my wife and I came down with a virus yesterday, which got worse during the night. Then we were awoken at 4:30 by my stepson who was racing up and down the stairs, taking presents from under the tree to his room to unwrap! Needless to say we both feel groggy and somewhat under the weather. Hence my wife said no photos of her and I really didn't feel like taking any anyway. Rhys

It seemed to have passed me and my boys by so we went off to the family holiday party and left her home, alone and sick. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

I am not big into people pictures and plenty of others around have their cameras out so its all good  My approach as well. My wife is always buzzing about with her p&s.
