Re: 20, 30 or 40D
it's not the camera that takes good pics, it's the photographer. If you are unsure, get the cheapest body + better lens and then see how you get on.
You can always upgrade and it's mainly the lenses that contribute to better pics, not the body - you can always get a better camera body and retain good lenses - not the other way around !! p.s. I got the 20D + great lenses. Still trying to get the best out of them !! |

Re: 20, 30 or 40D
I hate threads like that....
You didn't read the OP, did you? Although not implicity referenced, the implication is that my previous camera was a 10D, and even then, the fact that I do specifically mention the Tamron 17-50mm would mean that I'd come from an SLR. If I'd asked 'what kit should I buy to take the best pics?' then your answer would have been spot on.
