I just bought the Canon Digital Rebel EOS last night !!!! I am so excited. It was pricey -- camera, memory sticks, etc. = $1,000 buckaroos. We bought this one because we also have a newer Canon 35 mm and the lens are interchangeable. (In case any of you guys didn't know that, now you do ! I do understand that some of the digital features are lost when using the 35mm lens on a digital so I don't know how much we'll interchange the lens, but it's nice to have the option.) I have yet to start using it though, too busy today to really read through and experiment.
