Yes, we have had a 400d for a few months now, Jessops deal, opted for the 55-200 which got off eBay (AJ Purdy), also picked up some cheap UV filters on eBay (HongKong).

Very pleased with camera, doing more than I expected, and doing it well. Still getting used to it, taking pictures of moving cars and keeping focus proving difficult, but we will adjust, snaps at other times easy peasy. 55-200 lens is working well, havent used the 300 so cannot compare, as shooting at 10mi pixels it easy to crop quit heavily, last weekend at Stotfold boy managed to put 441 pictures on a 2gig card !! should see one or two of these being worth a second look.

The better len's "L" seem to cost more than the camera & standard lens together, cannot see that we will go there for a long while.

Also as a BTB, very pleased with Picasa from Google, makes sorting a bit easier.
