Okay, some may remember from my other thread where I announced that I purchased a Rebel XT, which should be delivered tomorrow. However, futureshop.ca has a sweet deal going on right now with an EOS 20d and the accessory pack (battery grip, battery, bag) for $1499. That's a very hard deal to resist. My dilemma is this though.... I am very amateur, the Rebel XT would be my first venture into the world of good cameras. My skills aren't that great yet. Would the 20d be too much for me at this stage in the game? What are the benefits of it over the Rebel XT?

I really want to have either one by the weekend for SCN, but I was hoping to use my Rebel this week to get acquainted with it this week, but I guess I'd be willing to suffer a few more days for the 20d if it's worth it.

Thoughts?
