I use that 70-200 all the time. It is a great lens, in fact, the current cover of Four Wheeler is one I shot with that lens and a 10D.

Good job.
I'm done spending on the camera for awhile now (with the exception of a case, filters, and battery grip). |

Nice shot Thespive. What a fun ride that would have been!
One can never have enough lenses! Would love to have some "L" glass some day, just can't afford it.
Shot both of these with a Canon EF 28 - 200mm 3.5-5.6 USM on a 20D. I have been real happy with the lens and it tends to be on my camera most of the time.

Bads,
I have the BG-E1 battery grip for my 300D. Looking at the BG-E3 photo above the battery orientation is different and it has two sets of contacts on it.
I guess the 350D XT uses a different battery than the 300D's BP-511 Li-Ion battery packs?
I'm very happy with the battery life on the 300D and I have two but normally only use one at a time.

Indeed,
I've filled up a 2gig card, and haven't even touched the battery life (according to the camera) of just the normal 1. |

I've shirted to RAW(NEF) and one of the big differnces is that you'll fill a 1GB card quickly. I've looked at the 8GB but opted for a series of 1GB (cheap at Costo) with a very sophisticated system of marking them "A", "B", "C" and so forth.
Batteries have really come around. My 950 (which I still carry) sucks down batteries at a voracious rate. The Nikon Professional DSLR's, the D100 and D2x will lasts so long you can't recall when you changed the battery. |

BTW, I love the battery grip. I can go a full day and never have to worry about battery power, 2000+ pics. Plus it is very ergonomic.
Hey Court, I shoot with 1GB cards too, marked #1, #2, etc. I usually shoot with cargo pants and keep unused cards in the left pocket, and used ones in the right.
