  • Try them in the shops. Try dpreview.com for reviews and camerapricebuster.com for price comparisons/deals. Some of the High St. retailers have some good deals at the mo.

    Personally i'd go up a level and go for the 40D. Prob not much price difference between what you paid for the 300D.
    What i paid for my 350D i can now pick up a 40D. Can decide on the 40D and nice lens or the 5D for my next purchase.

    What didn't you like about the 300D?

    What features do you need that it didn't have?

    Drat! I am in the market for a second-hand first digital SLR, preferably a Canon, and was going to ask how much you wanted for it.
    The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force in my life. :)

    Maybe you should get another 300D then. :p

    You don't have any specific features you're looking for?
  • If anyone is looking to buy Canon gear.....Have a look at "123fstop" on Ebay. Top class prices and top class service. I recently treated myself to a long lens from him and was even able to get Canon Cash Back.
