What is the best SD Memory Card for a Canon Rebel XSi? I'm upgrading from a Canon Rebel, which uses Compact Flash. It's a bummer since I have like 16gb in memory cards for it, so I'm going to have to buy SD cards. I read somewhere that the XSi will only take up to 4gb memory cards - is this true?

I shoot mainly JPEG. Thanks!

What are your thoughts on the Canon Rebel XTi? I've been doing amateur photography for about a year now using a Minolta x-370 slr, and I've already shot 3 genuine models(not friends). Anyway, it's pretty expensive in the long run to keep shooting film(8+ bucks a shoot), so as soon as I get the money up I'm going to buy a digital slr, probably the Canon Rebel XTi. What are your opinions on this camera?

Should I purchase the Nikon D40 or the Canon Rebel Xt? I currently own a Canon Powershot S80 and am planning on upgrading to a dSLR. I am looking into getting either a Nikon D40 or a Canon Rebel Xt. I'm leaning towards the D40 because it feels better in my hand, has a larger lcd, and is cheaper. However, the Canon Rebel Xt, based on the reviews I've read, supposedly produces better images. Will I even see a major difference by upgrading from my point and shoot camera (my canon s80 is an 8 mp point and shoot)? Will I see a decrease in quality going to a 6mp slr (the nikon d40) from an 8mp point and shoot?

Where can I get the best warranty for a Canon Rebel XTi Digital Camera? I am looking to buy a Canon Rebel Xti. Since I'm putting so much money into getting it anyway (for a hobby photographer anyway) I'd like to get an extended warranty as well.

How do you fix an "err 01" on a Canon Rebel XSi? I bought a Canon Rebel XSi a few days ago and today I got an "err 01" which told me there was a communication problem with my lens. The camera is practically brand new and I'm already getting errors? The error screen instructed me to "clean the contacts" - how would I go about doing this? I've NEVER removed the lens, how could the contacts be dirty? Any help would be great, if anything I'll end up either calling Canon tech services or returning the camera to Circuit City. Any help would be great
