The EOS 20D is the semi-professional digital SLR to deliver all the speed, precision and flexibility synonymous with high-end film SLR cameras - plus a whole lot more. A rugged magnesium alloy body provides the first clue that the EOS 20D is no ordinary camera. Canon's award-winning CMOS technology delivers outstanding image quality and 8.2 Megapixel resolution. The DIGIC II architecture drives blistering 5fps continuous shooting with a maximum burst of 23 frame JPEG images, class-leading color rendition accuracy, quick start-up times and rapid display and zooming of images during in-camera review. JPEG and RAW files write simultaneously with no loss of performance. 9 auto focus points are carefully distributed across a wide area of the frame for fast, accurate focusing, even with off-center subjects and particularly with 'rule-of-thirds' compositions.

5 of 5 Don't hesitate to buy this camera if you love phot Sunday, September 04, 2005
danellejon from Delray Beach, FL  

I just bought the canon eos 20D camera and the ef-s 17-85 canon zoom lense. I spent 4 months researching cameras and found only 1 reviewer the entire time who did not LOVE this camera and lense combo; I don't think he really used this camera. It is fabulous. Fast response and focusing time. I am getting ready for one son's wedding and the birth of a grandchild; I wanted a top quality camera that could take photos in low light (wedding environment) and could focus very quickly (children). This camera fills all my needs and desires. I love it!

5 of 5 Great Product! Tuesday, July 19, 2005
Charles from New York  
This is an excellent camera from Canon. Buy.com is also a great place to buy this camera. There are other websites with lower prices, but they have terrible return policy (watch out for restocking fee) and often require "order confirmation" which is basically a reason for a salesperson to call and sell you accessories at outrageously inflated prices. If you don't buy, they either cancel your order or it becomes out of stock. As usual, Buy.com delivered the product quickly and safely with NO HASSLE. I strongly recommend that you buy it here for better service. This camera comes with the 18-55mm lens which is rather cheaply made, but more than pulls its own weight! You should still add better lenses, but this is a nice way to start.

5 of 5 This camera kicks Thursday, March 10, 2005
Darrin from Dallas, TX  
It is hard to take a bad shot with this camera. I have been using digital cameras for a few years and this is my fourth one. I had gotten away from SLR's years ago and missed the functionality of them. I like to do different things with settings and have manual settings, etc. This camera has a lot of great features and it will take me some time to get used to it and up to speed, but it is great.
