Now I had my heart set on a 60d or 7d but it's too much for me to shell out at the moment, coupled with the fact I'm not sure if it's the right path for me as it will be my first dslr, so i'm thinking about getting something older and used.
Now I've seen the 40d recommended more than once, but there popularity keeps the used prices up.
As I would need lenses as well would it be worthwhile getting something older like a eos 20d with some lenses cheap and to play with and upgrade the body and lenses at a later date if required.
I prefer the controls and layout of the xxd models over the xxxd range.
But then there is always Nikon's offering such as the D80 or D200.
Main uses other than normal family photo's will be fireworks and cycling photography.
