i absolutely agree with you.

its true the 20D is a better camera,

but the fact is that its priced as a better camera.

so u can't directly say that the 20D beats the XT like that,

because that's the actual reason why its priced like that.

its like comparing two stocks, where one pays more dividend than the other

and the higher dividend stock is priced more expensive.

so u can't really say the higher dividend paying stock is better,

becasue its higher price has taken account the advantages.

and yes, being a XT user, i absolutely agree with you that the 20D would be a better camera.

but then for the price differnece i got a 17-40mm lens, so in a way i was better off too!

of course, if u don't really care about the price difference, it'd be rational to get the better (more expensive) one.

anyway, congrads on a new camera and happy photography.
