Title: 40D backup - refurbed XT? Post by: joneill809 on May 03, 2009, 04:34:51 AM I'm going to have to send in my 40D for repair and I don't want to be without a camera for the duration of the repair. I've been looking at an inexpensive refurb for a backup and came across an EOS XT for under $300. I don't want to spend a lot of money on a backup body, so this seems to be a good fit, but I'm wondering if I'm overlooking anything that would divert me away from the XT as a backup.
