I had the XT for several years and I got some real nice images from it. Almost wish I hadn't sold it but it's operation was so different from the 50D it would confuse me as to which controls to use I choose to sell it off. So now that I have the 6D and the 50D I find they are similar enough to keep both but at the same time when I go back to the 50 I find now I have to look to make changes. Ity makes me wonder how Ken does it with all the different mfg, types and styles of cameras hes has? Paul
