Canon's new inexpensive digital SLR
Hmm...this just might be what it takes to get into serious digital *now*. I've got an EOS1 and a Rebel G and I'd love to start focusing on serious digital, but is the EOS 300D going to be serious enough or do I need to spend the extra $1000 for the features I want? Wait, that's a lot of zero's, I think I know what the correct answer is - but the actual answer still eludes me ;)
"Canon's new inexpensive digital SLR Another new digital camera from Canon. This one isn't exactly as consumer-level as the PowerShot A80, but their new 6.3 megapixel digital SLR camera, the EOS Digital Rebel (known as the EOS 300D everywhere else) is noteworthy for other reasons. It's basically a stripped down, inexpensive version of Canon's EOS 10D that's compatible with Canon's well-regarded line of autofocus EF lenses. At just $900 for the body (lenses are extra), this is just about the least costly digital SLR we've ever seen."

For those of us who aren't serious photographers, any recommendations on a digital camera under, say, $400? By the time I was ready to take the digital plunge, the number of alternatives were too many to contemplate.

I don't really have any good suggestions - I've been completely overly focused on the high-end that I would even now where the middle starts...there are sooo many options.
www.dpreview.com is a great resource that might have some gems that you can start with...
