Got this big baby only for 350 euros, so had to buy it . Iv been looking for a cheap mark I for some time for winter/rainy usage, its just too bad that iso handling isnt as good as in my 40d(would need that in those situations), but couldnt shoot with 40d in heavy rain or when its snowing at all. Ill just need to get plastic tube from work to cover the lens. I love some of the features on this camera, like that it shows how strong the flash will be, but using this camera is hella hard and slow compared to 40d.
