just wondering if anyone here has tried this new unit.I want to purchase a new cam for outdoor photography and this is one on my list.any input good or bad would be appreciated.
I assume you are talking about the 300D? That is the model of the new digital rebel. Anyway, I have a friend that has had one for about a month. It is an excellent camera. He has taken some sweet photos with it. The 18 - 55mm lens that comes with it isn't as good as he would like, but he likes to do a lot of wide angle stuff. He has an IS 100-300mm lens that takes pretty good photos. If I could, I would get one in a moment.
I just had one in my hands today looking at it. I currently have an Elan II and a Elan 7. From everything I can see it is a good buy. All my Canon lenses will fit it. My 70 to 300 zoom becomes a 105 to 450 zoom on the digital side. I was looking at the 10D but I don't see that much of a difference for the $600 difference in the price tags. Almost all the internal parts are the same. One of the differences that didn't really make a difference to me was. The Rebel will only take a 4 shot burst instead of an 8 shot burst like the 10D before having to cycle the battery and save the pics to the flash card.
I'll probably be selling my Elan II to help with the purchase sometime soon.
