The 20D is at least a full stop better in terms of usefulness over the 10D, and the increase in the number of pixels is just an added bonus. It also does very impressive black and white (yes, BD, on an HP 7060!). Its start-up is also pretty much instant, versus about 2 1/2 seconds for the 10D. Quite a camera, well worth the trade-up from my "old" 10D, IMO. And, to my eyes, at the print sizes I use (up to 20 x 30 inches), far superior to any 35mm film. Flame away... The digital M needs to show up. Will von Dauster
