New Canon T2i v/s 50D

[Anbesol]

The 50D uses a pentaprism as opposed to pentamirror, which is brighter and sharper. You could consider that difference part of 'build quality' but I think it stands out on its own too.

Personally, I'd go for the 50D, once you get accustomed to the camera the better controls on the 50D will be a major blessing, especially the more fully manual you use the camera. Even if the T2i has better image quality (which I'm not sure yet, 18 MPix on an APS seems excessive).

It won't change your mind? So what do you have your mind set on anyway?

You wrote "It won't change your mind? So what do you have your mind set on anyway?" - I placed the order with newegg.com with 50D and the lens you HIGHLY recommended. I will buy the other lens (wide angle) after a few months.

I checked Best Buy's reviews on the site given by GrandPaw and decided to go with newegg. They, too have good financing - 12 months instead of 18 months.

THANKS A LOT for all your help.

Hats of to you .........Sir :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
