Absolutely! My wife doesn't realise how happy she is!

I've just replied on Birdforum that I think a reduction in noise of the shutter would be the best feature to check out for anyone into wildlife photography.

I've hardly ever needed more than 5 or 6 shots in a sequence (with that noisy 20D shutter the bird is long gone before you'll need more shots ) so the up-graded buffer is not that important to me.

The 100,000-frame shutter might be useful for someone looking to actually keep one of these rather than up-grding every few years...

I reckon a digital equivalent of the EOS3 body would be Canon's long-term goal in the mid-range market - something that would give them a long production run that wouldn't need up-dating all the time.

Whatever happened to the 400mm F5'6 lens upgrade that the dealers' shelves have been cleared for...
