I have had my 20D for about 8 months now and like it alot. My EOS 3 has not seen much use as it used to be. I only use "3" whenever I want to take wide angle and some BW shots. End of its time? Perhaps... then again, I worried about this when I bought my EOS 3. Has it reached its end? Perhaps it has in terms of the technological roadmap. But it hasn't in terms of its ability to capture good image. I'm sure a few months away from now, there will be another model (30D or 3D?) of DSLR being raved. That doesn't stop 20D being a good camera. Granted that I also want to have a full frame DSLR at the price of a 20D... but it's not here yet. In the mean time, I want to take picture. :) So, 20D it is.
