Because the DMR is in the NJ Leica hospital I had to take the 20D and 5D on vacation with me last week. And while they delivered some OK images. Their RAW files simply don't stand up to Leica's. I actually wish it were not true. I'd love to be able to achieve the dynamic range, usable shadow and highlight information, and micro detail with less expensive gear. Yet, alas, it seems not possible. When the DMR returns - the Canons will be sold. I may keep the 20D with the 10-22 just because it's it's a nice light weight P&S with unique wide angle capability.
