Hi, I've been lurking in the shadows a while and have used the Digital Caera Resource site a lot to get the latest info on the new toys, so thank you for that.
I currently have a Canon 350 D Rebel and several lenses: 10-22 EF-S 3.5-4.5, 17-85 EF-S IS 4-5.6, 28-135 EF IS 3.5-5.6 and a 75-300 EF IS 4-5.6.
I am looking at upgrading the body (while still keeping the Rebel) to something a little more professional but trying to keep the use of all my lenses. I'm looking at the 40D and 50D as the options and I like the higher MP of the 50D (not that I will use 15MP in a lot of the applications) but more importantly I like the use of the higher ISO without as much noise (around 1600). I mostly do nature shots, some higher speed or quicker movement shots, a fair bit of outdoor night shoots (this is where the higher ISO comes in handy) and the rest is the usual pics.
So I ask What is the best Canon I can buy that allows use of all the lenses I do have? from experience, as I have read the reports on many, and currently am leaning more towards the 50D. As for price, I've been saving for a while and it's time to upgrade - so which ever camera is better.
Thank you in advance for your opinions.
