List traffic has been slow, so I'll continue on this thread :-)

Yes, I plan to keep my EOS 20D for 4-5 years or more, until the shutter or
electronics wear out completely. The market penetration of the digital REBEL
ensures that I have a ready market for EF-S lenses should I ever decide to
trade up to Minolta DSLR.

In the meantime, I will concentrate on the equipment that really matters:
Strobes and backgrounds.

Cheers
Julian Loke
P.S. Besides, the APS-C sensor on my EOS 20D and my TS-E 24 L tilt shift
lens are a perfect match!
