Default Happy, happy--40D on the way!

I know you'll all understand my excitement! Dh gave me the go-ahead to order my first digital SLR, the Canon 40D. It's an early birthday present (my birthday's next month), in part because I'm taking a photography course at the local community college that starts in a couple weeks and I want my new camera before then.

I ordered from Costco--best price and a free CF card thrown in--and also, since there's an instant rebate on the camera with the kit lens so it's cheaper than we expected--the Nifty Fifty lens from Amazon. Can't wait!

Yippee for you! You must be SO excited! I've had my 40D for about eight weeks and I totally love it. I'm sure you will too. Happy Early Birthday!
