I got a new toy today. This is the Canon 20D. I chose this model over cheaper digital SLRs like the Canon Rebel line and the solid Nikon D70 model mostly because this camera is capable of continuous shooting at around 5 frames per second, up to 24 shots at a burst--perfect for sports action. Rather than getting the standard lens kit, I opted for Canon's 28-135mm, which features a nice basic range for a zoom lens. I'll probably add a more powerful (and expensive!) telephoto in a few months as well as a wide angle lens. But shooting at 8+ megapixels will give me the ability to crop judiciously and still keep high resolution shots in the meantime.
