Since part of this thread talks about lens compatibility I'll toss this in 
here.  (Don't remember if it's been said yet.)

My local camera dealer was lamenting that the Canon 18-55mm zoom that comes 
with the 300D will only fit the 300D.  You can't put it on a 10D or any of 
the other canon bodies.  It has something to do with some sort of a wedge 
shaped protrusion on the rear of the lens that fits into a hollowed out 
area inside the mount.

I don't know if he was kidding, but he seemed pretty serious.
See you later, gs
