    First charge the battery, then put the battery in the camera, insert a CF card, then send any new glass you may purchase directly to Chicago mwink.gif .

    Good luck with it Dragon, I'm perched at the edge of my seat waiting to see some of your shots with it.

    Read the manual? You've got a 10D! It's not like it's that much different:D . Unless of course you got one of the left handed Canadian models with toque holder ...

    Pitter patter ...

    :D I absolutely agree! My 20D manual is in my nightstand and I regularly read it. Ann mentioned a custom function a few weeks ago and I thought, "gee, I don't remember that one"

    But it's your Christmas day man! How can you stand it?rolleyes1.gif

    Anyway, good luck with the Anniversary party. You're going to love the 20D ...
