Not a great improvement though--same 8MP as the 20D. Consider it a 20Ds.

:-)

Now, *if* I were going to go back to Canon equipment, the 20D should be available at stock-blowout pricing soon. I've kept my base lens kit (20/2.8, 28/1.8, 50/1.4 and 100/2 primes) just in case.

But I'm quite happy with the *ist DS and my Pentax lenses. I'll continue waiting for the 10Mpixel high-end body.

Meanwhile, I took a step sideways and bought myself a Sony DSC-R1 with the returns from selling my older Pentax lenses. Very very nice camera, very different from a DSLR. Some samples from my first walkabout with it:

It's a darn nice piece of equipment. The print quality it makes is superb.
