Canon 300D or 10D?

[Jackal]

I believe thats quite true. Obviously 10D is more expensive 300D as "most of the time"(not always) the more expensive cams offers extra functions, features or quality wise etc.
I've got a 300D and I'm quite happy with it as it caters to my needs. I wouldn't mind a 10D though.

Buying DSLR is jus like buying a car .... there are factors to consider such as:
features and functionality;
resale value;
compatibility and ease of use;
entry level: diehard hobbyists or upgrader from prosumer.

Unless u r a true fans of Canon's products ... y dun u consider Nikon D70!!!
Though I love my 300D but IMO .. D70 beat 300D handdown!!!
But getting a D70 will mean getting new set of lens and accessories!!!

He did mentioned that his friend already has an EOS 30 with a few lenses.

Yeah. My fren already got a couple of canon lenses already. Just checked out the D70. It does look deliciously good. Should I tempt my friend? :devil:

IMHO, if budget is not a concern, get the 10D. I own a 300D, sometimes I really love to have the FEC control. Yes, we can hack the FEC by 3rd party software like 10DRemote, but everytime I reset the camera, the hacked FEC value will be reset to 0, very inconvenience if going for travel.

If budget is tight, go for 300D. Because with 10D, your friend might need to spend another $1300+/- for the 17-40L, in order to get the wide angle 28mm after 1.6x.

Either one will good for your friend to start "Digital", as he already familiar with the EOS30.

Happy purchasing and shooting!
