You have a Canon EOS film?

Then of course you'd want a Canon EOS digital.

I really, really suggest the EOS 450D, or XSi.

You could wait for the new T1i, but… I really don't suggest it.

Of course, it may be too limited for you, and so you might want to jump to the 40D or 50D straightaway.

I agree the XS is a great camera - build quality, photo quality, features, this camera has it all. Trust me, you don't need all the bells and whistles some models say they have, just a good basic platform is what you nee.

I know, I own an XS and love it. I've added a Tamron 18-200 lens. Although the 18-55 kit lens is clean and sharp, it doesn't have the reach I want.

Here's a shot I did the other day messing about with depth of field.
