It's lucky you eventually specified 30D. I was thinking it was something else altogether!

I did not like the 400D for that reason - too small for my hands. 300D feels much better. However, 30D feels better still.

Yeah, it'll be my back-up camera... lining up some weddings for after the first of the year... I'm shooting for some friends in April... Friend or not, I was terrified of shooting a wedding without a back-up camera (hence the 30D)...
At least that's how I justified it to my wife! ;-) |

Well I got the Xt as a back-up /wife's camera as well.
Done one wedding. They loved the shots. Got one to do this weekend and I officially retire from them. I did not get into this hobby to have another job.
