k so back in november someone broke into my house and stole all of my camera gear, plus some stuff i was borrowing from my dad and some stuff he wanted me to ebay for him... now after a nice long insurance process... im sitting on about 3700 bucks i can spend on camera gear (and theyll pay tax on top of that... how sick is that? because most of the stuff was old and probably not worth that much any more by any means) so uh... im pretty torn. i could grab a couple sick lenses... trade in my elan body for an eos 1... get a digi rebel or a 20d... im sticking with canon in any case... i kinda want a decent video camera too because i lost an slr, digi and video... all pretty cheap but now they added up. so uh... whats some of your guys favorite gear?

20D is an awesome camera. if you are feeling like spending all your money in one place, you could check out the EOS 1Ds (i think its called that). that might be some overkill though.

if you are looking at miniDV for a reasonable price, canon optura Xi is a fairly nice cam.

eos 1ds are definitely like 5 gs... i could go for a nice lens or two though... im pretty inept about lenses beyond the straight up numbers
