[matty]

just bought myself a nice hardly used 20d with grip, the 300d has been an ace camera for me but the offer was too good to turn down, so ive upgraded!:D

Ahh so you've bought it because it'll continue to be a hardly used 20d and hold its value? :p

[matty]

its the hermitically sealed case that attracted me to it.....

[IanC_UK]

lmao ! nice one Matty and despite what other people say i know you actually use your camera, unlike a certain other mod who just got a 5d ;) hehehehe

20D good choice ! :)

Great choice. My first digital SLR was a 300D and I must say it was a super camera. I upgraded to a 20D and loved that even more. I now have a 5D using the 20D as back up. Whilst I love the chunky 5D, I still find the 20D easier to handle. However, it is still good to have a half frame and full frame to utilise the extreme range of all of the lenses. :)

Mods, may I make a suggestion? It should be made compulsory for all Peeps in receipt of new shiny equipment to post a pic within say 48 hrs. :shrug: whadyathink??

Stopping Matty from posting pics of his 'shiny equipment' is a challenge Gilly - dont encourage him ;) :lol:

[matty]

i will get a one week ban, starting sunday monring and ending on bankholiday monday in the evening sometime when i get back...lol

pictures of random household rubbish will be taken tonight...

[Joe T]

Pictures of new cameras need to be taken with a loaf of bread next to the camera to prove it yours and not just a pic stolen off the net ;)

Oh yes, and it should be Hovis!

[antonroland]

OI!!!

Don't be so tough on the man!

:D

[matty]

hovis????

****

[busterboy]

Nice one matty, My first SLR was the 300D and I too upgraded to the 20D.

You will find a host of improvements..:)

[digitalfailure]

my 5d has seen a shocking amount of action in the week i've had it.........12 images done

thats a whole months shooting :eek:

[matty]

i am home...and i have a duck.

when ive managed to remove the stench that seems to be coming from my feet i will get the duck shot...

[hypnotic]

Don't forget to take the duck back to the village pond when you have finished with it :lol: :D :shrug:
