I'm waffling between purchasing the Canon DIgital Rebel XT and the Nikon d50/d70s...
ANy thoughts out there? I do 25% Sports photography and 75% still shots (portraits) as a prosumer working for a local paper.
My old camera is a Nikon (along w/ accessories) but I didn't like the manual focus of the d50/d70 lens.
Do you think that compact flash is better than SD ?
WHat's the difference between a silver body and black?
THanks

I was expecting a huge response to this question, especially from the
owners of these models, of which I am not one, so take this FWIW.
I don't see how you could go wrong with any of these models. I would
worry more about how each looks and feels to YOU, rather than about
their technological aspects. You could spend a little more on the D70s,
and get a little more, or spend a little less on the D50 or 350D, and put
the money saved towards a better lens. Don't buy the kit lenses.
As for the difference between CF and SD, I would not let that be your
deciding factor, unless you absolutely need the larger CF capacities.
Hope that helps. Maybe some owners will see this and respond.
