What is it you hope to get out of an upgrade? Do you feel you need a spot meter? Or a more rugged, water-resistant body? Or something else. Tom made some good points, and if you really need something that the 1N (or 3) offer, then he's probably right that the 3 is a better fit. (Except for one thing: No Canon camera I've ever owned has ever felt as precisely made as the 1N / 1v. Not even the F-1N. Although I haven't spent much time with a 90.) But unless you really feel some feature of a new body is going to make your images better, or easier to get, I'd suggest saving the money and putting it towards a digital, if that's your eventual goal anyway. I still have my 1v, and can't quite convince myself to part with it (unless someone wants to make me a real good offer), but I shoot with my 20D almost exclusively, with a 10D as my primary backup. If the rumors of a 20D replacement are true, you may be able to find 20Ds fairly cheap in the near future. Bob Meyer I don't suffer from insanity... I enjoy every minute of it. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
