It's just that it was a bit out of my price range, and I'm not usually an early adopter. But Nate says he got a great deal (he bought it without a lens) and he just really wanted me to have one since he was having so much fun with his 300D. > Trust me, It will be an easy transition. I went from manual > focus, mechanical cameras to the *ist D without much frustration. Yeah, I've been using a ZX-50 for about a month now, so that's been a good transition camera for it. I've just spent an hour with the istD and I've already figured out most things I would want to do with it. It makes a really nice combo with the Sigma 28-105 f2.8 I bought used a couple of weeks ago. Tomorrow I'll take it out for its first real test outside.
