Hi all,
I have bought a couple of years ago my 20D through ebay... no problem whatsoever and the camera still takes beautiful shots (90% of my galleries in fact... )
That said, this doesn't seem a very good deal... the lens are not good... you wouldn't buy them for more than 300 bucks... both...
The camera is IMO not worth it because it never really seemed much of an upgrade for the 20D, it was more like a 20D Mk 1,5. The real upgrade is now the 40D... that you you will be able to buy in a couple of months for 1299 plus lens...
Now you're saying, and what about the lens ?? Well, i say that if you think of spending 1200 dollars on a camera and use it with crappy 100 dollar lens forget it... might as well buy a 600 dollar camera and a 600 dollar lens...
If you're into photography and want to take some vacation snaps, don't buy 40D or 30D, but the low end of the range.,.. the 400D which serves perfectly... if you're into making some money and selling stock and so, spend good money on lens... and prepare to spend more than with your camera... i'm not saying that you can't with those lens and camera... but you won't take advantage of your camera's full potential and you'll get poorer results... but hey... there are guys in stock with Point and shoots... so you can do that, but it's never as good as a semi pro camera like the 40D (but with good glass...)
