I'm going to be getting either a Canon Digital Rebel XT or an XTi within 2 days. And price matters, I can afford to get the XT, although with the XTi I'd have to make a deal with my parents and sell several things to get it. I'm going to be using the camera for a while, several years most likely and all the way through college if I can (5 years). With the XT I could afford it without having to sell anything else and if I did sell the other things, then I could put that money into better lenses.
So, what do you think that I should go for? I don't really care about the more auto focus points of the XTi because I actually like to manual focus it. They both feel nice in my hands, I know that I wouldn't notice a difference in megapixels. I do like the bigger LCD of the XTi and the dust prevention system, although I don't know if that is really worth the extra $150 + the tax difference.
What would you suggest?
