Keen to see the mythical 5D replacement, not that I can ever afford one, or even a used current 5D.
Avantibill - you are right, DSLSR photography makes competetive mtbing look cheap.... Like mtb there is always more stuff to buy, and I am not into bling either.
You need to really want a DSLR to make the investment worthwhile, the quality of your basic image is no better (and possibly worse) than a decent P and S. But it is more fun...
the Canon 1000 is looking interesting.
Sims - what are you shooting with now if you have a spare D70 ?
