Hi All,
Just get a 550D/Rebel T2i as my 2nd/3rd boby (I have a 400D / Digital Rebel XTi and 5D2).
I can't believe the harshness from it's shutter noise, which I have to get use to.
550D/Rebel T2i is also tend to over-expose with 580EX.
Otherwise, this camera will do a good job before the next FF 5D3/3D from Canon.
Have a nice day ;)

Ok, come home and check the photos: far too much digital noise with ISO 3200.
So, I turn down the Max ISO to 1600 and test again: so far so good.

I have the t2i and the 430ex, I agree on the noisy shutter. For the flash, I usually turn the flash comp down 1 to 1 1/2 stops and it's good for my tastes. For portraits, I definitely bounce wherever possible....
