Does anyone have experience of the 400D and is it that much better that the 350D?
P.S. I wnat a Canon as I have some EOS lenses for my wet film camera, so I'm not considering other brands.
Strange as it may seem Canon have an outlet on ebay now selling refurbished cameras, the 350D included and are warrantied, I have a 350D and love it, the 400D though is a 10mp camera so would be a better buy over the 8mp 350D, it also has a built in sensor cleaning system, which is a definate advantage... damn those dust bunnies
, I would suggest you come over to the EOS forum and ask there,

The battery pack on it BTW makes it a better fit in the hand, and more comfortable to use.
