I have the digital Rebel (300D) 6.3Meg camera, and LUV it! I have a friend that owns the XT, and for my hands, it is just a little too small of body. I have heard the XTi went back to the standard body size. The 30D is a very nice camera also (another friend has this one).

The Canon XT is a fully capable camera that is great to learn on. I don't feel the XTi is really much of an "upgrade" from the XT, or at least not worth the extra $'s. I've never had dust problems on my sensor so the XTi dust cleaning system is neglible. The difference from 8 to 10 megapixels...you wouldn't even know the difference unless you are trying to print a billboard. I sold my XT a few days ago but you can find them for really cheap now (like $400'ish). I would pick up a XT for cheap and put some extra money towards glass.

Sweet, thanks blazer. Do you know of a place to look for one.

I would look for a used in the classifieds on either:

I've bought tons of stuff from each forum and everything went well. I've seen XT bodies for $400, some below. XTi's are still going for $600+ as they are still brand new.
