I only purchased 40D Body only, it says Kit on the box but it's just 40D body. I dropped my 50.8...:( I need to do a surgery on my poor 50.

I picked up mine last week and I'm still smiling like a fool. I went from a 350D to the 40 and the difference is like going from black and white to colour. Enjoy Lebron. :)

Thanks!!
I love every bit of it! Live-View kicks arse!!! I love my BLURRY 14-40L LOL very nice lense. By the way, I used to have Canon 10-22 and now I realize how good it was, IQ-wise it is as good as L lense if not better.

haha I'm no P-diddy, Paris Hilton or any of those wealthy people :) I worked hard to get this camera, saved up quite some time now :) That's why it means so much too me, and I am so happy with it. I will be sure to take many pictures and post them here to get an advice from experts :)

p.s. just fixed to gollum :)
