ISO 3200 on a 20d is going to be all but worthless

Fortunately, that's just not true. I shot at ISO 3200 with my 30D (Basically the same camera and ISO performance as the 20D) and sold tons of 8X10 prints that looked GREAT. I don't think people realize that the noise you see on your screen is not as obtrusive in the prints.

I have many, many 20D images taken at 3200 or even higher in wedding albums, printed 14" or 18" across. Don't worry about the camera nerds trust your prints and your eyes.

Leave the camera at home and enjoy the show. You can experience something or you can photograph it, not both.
