350d is already out. much better than 300D I'd save for the 350. better off with it.

if you have canon EF lenses then they will fit any EOS camera body film or digital.

The sensor in most DSLRs is smaller than a 35mm film, so the image you capture is the smaller cropped square inside what would be a normal frame size.

On the Canon stuff you lenses become 1.6 times longer.
