PS: Are you gonna upgrade to the 20D? That looks to be one awesome camera for the Canon folk out there!![/QUOTE]

There's always the temptation in photography to move up......that would be nice, but.......I'm very happy with the 300D. The biggest reason is the weight. I have a back problem and didn't get the 10D for that reason. I waited patiently (or impatiently ) for a lighter weight DSLR, and when the Rebel arrived, I knew this was it. It's really all I need, for a while anyway. I recycled all my lenses when I changed from film to digital, and spent my money on that! I did manage to get my lenses down from 6 lenses to 3. But better glass including my first "L" lens (17-40 which is awesome). However, I do have a little money put aside "just in case" Canon comes out with a longer focal length, but smaller/lighter weight lens. Someday!

Once again, I always enjoy your photos. They inspire me to do better myself. I do mostly street photography now since my photography time has been so limited - and the streets are really my favorite. But hopefully I'll expand out one of these days. I'm going to Lake George next week - maybe I'll come back with something different.
