Whoo hoo....20D ordered!!!

[KimballPhotography]

I'm very excited! I just ordered my new Canon 20D:clap . Comes with the kit lens and I will also be getting a Canon 28/135 IS lens and a battery grip. I already have my 75/300 IS lens and a 420EX flash (which hopefully when I get the money I can upgrade). Boy, is this ever addictive! I've upgraded cameras 3 times in the past year and a half. Hopefully this one will make me happy and I can keep it for a while. Now...the question of the day...what do you do for the 3-4 days shipping time to keep from going comepletely INSANE:huh ????

A very excited me!

Thanks Marlof! It's here, it's here...it's FINALLY here!!! I'm so very excited. My lens and grip won't be here until tomorrow. I do have my 75-300 lens, so I'll play with that until the other one arrives. Hopefully we will have a decent day tomorrow. Today was dark and gloomy. It doesn't matther though, I'll find SOMETHING to work with, he he.

I'm so excited!!:clap :lust :rofl

Sadly, I two am ordering a 20D soon if I can't find a quality used one...

BUT I CAN'T WAIT! :thumb

OMG I'm in LOFF!!! I've had it for all of 2 days now...still learning all of the bells and whistles. Man oh man, 'tis great! I'm sure it will take me a while to get as comfy as I was with my rebel...but I already LOVE the pics so much more already! The only thing I can't get used to is the on/off switch being on the back/bottom. I keep forgetting to turn my baby off (well, I do remember...just not right off:wxwax ). Whoo hoo, I'm a happy girl now!

You guys have fun when you get yours! I know you will:clap :thumb :clap :rofl !

Congratulations everyone!

Why am I not that excited? I was over the Rebel. I got the 20D the first part of February and then got lenses here and there, as I got rid of my old. Now I am chewing over whether it is worth it to spend a fortune on a backpack.

I love how that camera fires. I mean, for the most part, I say fire, it says "yes mam". But then I expected it to with all the money I had to lay out.

I am not jealous that you all got the 20D, I have had it for 1 1/2 months. I am jealous that you are finding such joy in it.
Maybe if I could get it in the case without breaking my back...........or is that an excuse, lol. (It is not the camera breaking my back it is the lenses)

It is a good camera.

Congrats to all... Looks like I get to order mine on Monday. I cannot wait. Where did you guys/girls order from? Hard to find a good trustworthy place but the internet prices are much better than here local in St. Louis, Missouri.

I think I'm going to order from PCNation.com, however, before I do I'll call and talk to order instead of ordering on a web page. I think they offer overnight shipping for $30 and for the difference I'm saving from buying local I'll surley pay the 30 bucks so I don't have to sit around and drull for days....

Can anyone give me any feedback on the default 18-55 lens that comes in the kit??

Thanks

whatever it is, she deserves ithttp://dgrin.com/images/smilies/clap.gifi wish i could get her a surprise of this magnitude...but alas, she is impossible to buy for and has much better taste than i. for now i'll just pick up her share of the chores and proceed to pamper her about the house until i find the right "thank you" gift.


now to offload the d rebel...hoping to avoid flea bay...
