On a side note does anyone know if there are any rumors of a replacement for the Canon 400D/XTi. (I'm assuming the 40D wasn't a replacement.) Looking into jumping into the DSLR pool with the 400D/XTi however if there is a chance of a new model showing up this Fall.....
I would go with a 350D and a nice lens rather than a newer camera, most SLR owners will agree with me when i say that lenses are more important than the camera.
I echo the comment about the lens. I just bought an XTi and I love it. I bought with the kit lens, but I also got an EF-50mm 1.8 and that takes beautiful pictures. I have only used the kit lens to take about 10 pictures and the fixed 50mm about 1000 because the picture quality is soooo much better.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
