Got my 40D today, but....

[S2K1]

Now that I am pretty used to it...I havent touched my poor XT.

I really thought that I would want to use the XT at work and the 40D for everything else.....NOT

Part of it may be me wanting to show off a little with my 40D at work

Sounds like me after shedding my Rebel(300D) and going to a 30D. But I find myself using my XTi a lot now because of it's small size and portability.

With all due respect, I would think it would be better to show off fantastic pictures you took with the camera and not the camera its self...

Anybody can BUY a camera, not everybody can USE one effectively.

I agree with you 100%... but since I have the option now I want to use my 40D

anytime someone says that I have a really nice camera because it takes good pictures, I hand it towards them in M and ask if they'd like to use it. Then they ask. how ....? what do I.....? why can't I....? etc. and by the end of things, they respect the fact that I shoot with it more.
