My EOS 50e has just arrived from ebay, my god this thing seems huge compared to my 350D. Right now to google to find a manual for it then I can figure out what type of battery it needs :)

Power Source Battery: Battery: One 2CR5 lithium batteries supplies power to body and built-in flash. With Battery Pack BP-50: 4 Size-AA alkaline batteries or 2CR5 lithium battery. With Battery Pack BP-5B (with BP-50 battery compartment cover): 4 Size-D batteries.
Battery Check: Battery level displayed automatically indicating one of four levels on the LCD panel when Command Dial is unlocked. Battery level is indicated in one of four levels. Note: When the http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/eos/eoscamera/EOS500nRebelGKiss2/powecell.gif symbol blinks on the LCD, a picture can still be taken except it may not be enough to advance/rewind the film. :)

Oh sweet, you are a star :thumbs:

It feels quite a well built camera (well comapre to the 350d) and I can't wait to try out the eye control system on it :)

Yes it seems huge in comparison.

Just figured out how to get the eye control working and I'm surprised in that it works very well :)

I would like this on my 350D especially, when doing motorsport photography as I'm always changing the AF point. Do any of the digital cameras have this ?
