I currently own a first generation Canon Rebel Digital SLR camera. That was Canon's first consumer level digital SLR camera.

It is rated at 6.3 megapixels.

I am vey happy with it and it meets all my current picture-taking needs. I have a number of other Canon film cameras (and a couple of Minoltas) but I never, ever use film anymore.

Anyhow, I was at a local camera store to buy my son an inexpensive point-and-shoot digital camera. Got him a Canon Powershot A550. Not their most expensive camera, but if anything happen to the camera it is not a big loss.

Anyhow, while at the store I saw two of Canon's new "consumer" digital SLRs. The Canon XT (8 megapixels) and the Canon XTi.

Now I want one!

Do you guys and gals know anything about the new Rebel XT or XTi?

With Father's Day coming up, I can always give myself a present.

I would appreciate your comments, suggestions.

And yes, I would keep the original Canon Rebel Digital as a back-up camera.
