I found a slick deal, listed on a website for a Canon Rebel T4i from B&H Photography. Since this is this years camera, and I've been shooting with a Rebel XT (2003/4 model), I thought it was time for an upgrade. They had a deal where if you added the 55-250 they knocked $150 off the price of the lens.
So this camera takes 18 megapixel shots, as compared to the 8 on the XT. The file size (shooting RAW) has gone from 6-8 megs to 24-33 megs, so that should be fun management. Since it's all Canon, my previous lenses will still work, but now the batteries are different and it's gone from Compact Flash to SD/SDHC memory cards, so that's all different.
Took it out for it's first test run at the zoo today, and I have to say I really, really, really like this upgrade. HD Video, touch screen, high ISO for lower light shots. I'm glad I got the new toy. Now, what to do with that old XT...
