I had a play with Jostein's and I was impressed with it's build quality.
I was not impressed with navigation buttons, preferring the Canons for
that. I'm afraid the next body I buy will be in a year or two and will
have 8MP CMOS and a crop of 1.3.....

Also, one of my favourite lenses is a 70-200. I'm ditching my Sigma in
favour of the dreaded Image Stabilisation, because I can. Can't with the
*ist D. This is a vital point for me.

Take you point though - I sure like the *ist D. If I had one, I'd use it
without a grip, with a 20 or 24mm lens as a street cam.


Cheers,
  Cotty
