that is what im gonna do when i get around to a DSLR instead of a old film SLR
b/c its the lens that makes the biggest difference
It's only a $100 difference or so anyways, which really isn't that much. Besides, with the deal BB was having it was cheaper to get the XTi with the almost free lens, then it would be to get the XT and a higher quality lens.

You definatly wont be dissapointed with your decision Ive had mine since the end of september and absolutly love it.

You can see some of my shots here to kinda get an idea of what ive been able to do with it so far, the hockey and car shots are all taken with the Tamron 28-75 2.8 though, but the rest is all with the sigma lense (which is almost exactly the same quality of your 75-300.
