My New Toy
Well, thanks to my generous friends at Circle 7 Outfitters, I ordered my new camera today. The new gem of my collection is a 15 Megapixel Canon EOS 50D with a Transcend UDMA 300X 16GB CF card. The big change from the 40D to the 50D is an increase from 10 Megapixels to 15 Megapixels and a much higher resolution screen display for viewing images.
This also allows me to retire my EOS-20D and use the EOS-40D as my backup frame. I can now shoot with two frames, a 40D and a 50D. I can put the long lens on the 50D and the 17-85 on the 40D. This prevents me from having to swap lenses as much, reducing dust in the frames and on the sensors.

Hi Rob,
Hey, since you are retiring your EOS-20D will you consider reselling it to me for a "cheap" price?
Just a thought. I am looking for a reflex digital but do not have a budget for it.
Thanks
Enrico

Enrico,
I could make you a pretty good deal on it, but the flash isn't working. So we'd have to send it to Canon to have it repaired first.
