It took a bit of agonizing trying to decide what would be the replacement SLR to my Nikon D100. I knew for sure that I was making the switch to Canon. Ironically my friend saw it coming before I even realized it. It had just come time to upgrade.

Lens Review
Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM on Canon EOS Rebel 400D/XTi SLR
