As of right now - 10D is a great camera, capable of results that are far beyond what most need anyway. If you can afford it - get it, if not - keep shooting film. I do both as both types are good for different tasks. If you think that current price of 10D is too high - think of how much film and developing costs. Or maybe try to find 10D secondhand - lots of those are availible. Don't get me wrong - I'm an equipment junkie too, but I'm more conserned with lenses than bodies. Would I like to have 1Ds - sure. Will it make me a better photographer or my pictures better? - No. Plus people that NEED cameras in 1Ds class usually don't think about the price - they just get them. If you are going to spend this much time thinking if you should get 10D or not - you'll never get it and miss out on a lot of pictures. I find 10D to be the greatest value for the money with quality good enough to publish photos in magaziens and newspapers that I have done. So, my advice - just like Nike - JUST DO IT!!!. Get the camera, enjoy it, and you will always can sell it if it doesn't work out for some reason. (can't see why). All this reminds me when people were thinking to buy 1n, to upgrade from a lower level camera. It will not make you a better shooter. Practice will. I've seen many great pictures that were taken with very basic cameras. Just my opinion.
