Hold on with the "improvement" in AF.
The 10D uses basically the same AF sensor array and 7 point autofocus system
that the Elan 7 does.
The Elan 7 does not have an infrared AF assist light.
In low light situations, without the dedicated 420EX flash (which does have
an AF assist lamp), the Elan7 can and usually does hunt quite a bit,
sometimes not being able to focus.  How do I know this?  I own an Elan 7 and
an Elan II.  The Elan II is far better at autofocusing in low light due to
it's autofocus assist infrared beam.

Cheers,
Dave

I think the best thing about the 10D is the improvment in AF.
