So glad I found this post. Thanks for the great tips...
I just rec'd the Canon Rebel XT for a Christmas gift. DH also purchased the 75-300mm lens as well. The first day I played with the new camera...I switched a lens from my Canon Rebel G 35-80mm and loved that as well. I got the black body, which I prefer. The smaller body was strange to me when I first opened it the other evening, but I think that I am getting more used to it.
I am excited to take lots of pix at Disney for our Christmas vacation...and also hope to get a close of DD while she sings at CP this year.
