Buying the Canon Rebel XTi

I\'ve been reading around the web and a lot of people prefer the 8 MP Rebel XT over the 10 MP XTi in overall picture quality.  But I\'m still leaning towards the XTi, the XSi is nice.. comes out April 27th, but I think that might be slightly out of my price range.  

With 4 kids we take a LOT of pictures and are getting fed up with going to local photographers or places like JCPenny or Picture People just to have unmotivated  high schoolers who don\'t like what they are doing try to take pictures of our kids.. we can do a better job ourselves in the comfort of our own home, yard, park.. whatever.

I take it my old lenses won\'t auto focus or any of that jazz right?  So I need an AF lens for the auto focus?  What is the best general purpose lens to get?  (for shooting children and family.. mostly natural light)


What was your old camera?

my old camera is a Canon A-1... which I just read uses FD lenses which don\'t work with any of the canon digital camera bodies without an adaptor... damn.  I guess this throws the D80 back into the mix.

They make the an adapter that works with the EF lenses but since the EOS line has circuits that run into the lense, there are a lot of problems with using it. I wouldn\'t recommend it.

Didn\'t want to create a new thread.  Is the Canon XTi still the way to go?  Or is there something better for close to the same price?  I already have 3 EF lenses, so I\'d really like to stick with Canon.  I got the green light to buy it, so I probably will in the next month or so.

The XTi is great value for money. The XSi is out in April I think, but it\'s not that much better. It\'s just slightly better, but the price is a lot more. Get the XTi. :)

Evi never bought the camera, that\'s why. He could have atleast been like fifaseriesfan and just posted pics from another site.
