Hi Jim,
I wondered about that too, but the little screen on the EOS 10D is not good enough to really
give me an idea of whether the picture will come out good or not. The EOS 10D's preview screen
seems to show a lot of photos as over exposed, even with the screen brightness turned down.
Perhaps this may be because the camera is so new.
I had thought that the camera was overexposing when I looked at the preview screen so I
adjusted for this with the exposure compensation by going down one stop. But when I got home,
I found that I should NOT have done this - the pictures did look underexposed when I brought it up
on the PC screen even though they looked OK on the preview screen on the camera......
I still haven't sorted out thru the 2000+ pictures yet. I figure there'd be 10% keeper shots in there
somehow. Which is probably an OK ratio for a hobbyist like me.
Cheers,
Lawrance

I was just wondering if you could actually put all your 'keepers' out of the 2000 on the one 256 meg CF card.
