When I retired early I bought a Canon G3 and finally stepped up to a DSLR last September. I am an amateur/hobbiest photographer and unless some new technology comes along that makes digital obsolete I don't think I will ever need another camera. Now lenses are another thing entirely. I may not need another camera body but I can see another lens or two in the future.
Sparky98,

Thank you for the information! Since I have started this search for a 40D I've learned a few things. I had no idea there were US versions made with Meg. bodies and others with plastic bodies. Big diff. in pricing but you are correct, I diffinately want to buy from a reputable company or person!!!!!!

Like you, I am looking forward to a 40D if and when I can find one I can afford. Now the glass is another thing all together!!. Let's see, wide angle, macro, telephoto, etc. I think I'll have to find myself a Sugar Momma!!!
