I wish I had a parking garage like that near by, well, they are building a new one that should have the nicer lights rather than the crappy yellow/ orange ones.

I think I will be able to manuver the camera better. Seemed to fit my smaller hands better, eventhough the 40D was a sweet as DSLR. I did hold the Nikon D40x and D80 which were also nice cameras. I think I want to stay with Canon though. I am going to jump in the DSLR scene with the 400D, yet still shopping for a lens. I still am not sure in that department yet; Kit lens or get body only and get a different Canon lens. Hmmm...

like I said, the kit lens isnt a bad lens to start on

I think I will end up doing that anyway. I could probably get a decent tripod cheaper than $500, hahah. Thanks for the help and insight Ethan!

Yeah, for me the TW needs to be silver, or white, maybe gold rims. The RR I thought looked great with the Bronze color or a black rim. ASM, almost anything goes, and the HFPs work great, IMO.

If you don't like them, let me know.
