I shoot with a Cannon Rebel T1i (500D). Currently considering an upgrade to the Cannon 7D.

I use a Canon 7D. I am very happy with it. The 8fps continuous shooting helps me get better bird in flight photos (especialy hummers) and the 18 MP sensor lets me upload larger photos to my stock sites which help me sell more. Plus it has a 100% view finder and 19 focus points though I normaly only use the center. There are many threads on here on what cameras members use. But I am sure alot of folks have uphraded recently.

T1i - Yes and no. I believe the camera is more capable than I am yet I am often pushing the limits. Low light performance, megapixels, and frames per second are my main reasons to upgrade. That said I may just need to push the ISO for a change. I shoot in manual with ISO 200 most of the time. This makes me learn to use and understand aperture and shutter speed adjustments. Time to start putting ISO into that mix more often.

The above made me smile, as I just started using the ISO settings yesterday!! They work quite well but you have to remember to set it back, otherwise you get well over-exposed images the next day in a nice bright setting. ;-) (How do I know?!)

My camera: Canon 350D. Like Zunazet, I feel it's probably capable of much more than I can do with it, and one of the reasons I'm hanging onto it as long as possible is because I should learn how to use it well. But I was wondering if it was beginning to act up on me, as in the last few days the auto-bracketing has been a bit dodgy. We are meant to get three shots: mid, dark and light. It gives me mid, mid and light! Sometimes turning if off and on again sorts it out, but it never used to do that. It also cancelled the auto-bracketing setting yesterday all of a sudden... there I was continuing to take three shots per view, and they were all the same exposure!

Digital cameras can be quirky...

Canon 5D MK II, Canon 20D and a Canon 20D modified for infrared. Yes, I am happy with them and I would add a second 5D MK II if I had the funds. Yes, I am happy with them. No I won't sell any of them. ;o)

I have the Canon xSi. I like it except for two things. 1) It tends to over-expose. Easily solved by dialing back the exposure by about 1/3 but still not ideal. 2) I get unacceptable noise at 1600 and (imo) too much at 800. I'll definitely look for better low light performance when I upgrade.

I have 2 at the present time, Sony a330 and a Sony a580..
Also, have the Sony a65 on order... Seems the S.O. has laid
claim to the a330...

Very happy with both of them right now, can't wait for
the a65 to get here...

Canon Rebel T2i (550D) with a 18-55mm and a 55-250mm lens. I have no complaints, I just need to set aside some money to get a macro lens.

I have the Canon 7D and like it for the same reasons that Gregg does. I use it with a Sigma 17-70mm, Tamron 90mm, Canon 70-200mm f4 and a Canon 50mm f1.4 which turned out to be a piece of junk. (Read the thread about it that I started) I have a Canon G11, which is a super, intuitive 10MP camera that takes great shots. I would only change where the buttons are laid out because sometimes the base of your thumb can turn some functions on without your intention to do so.
