Well I went out to my car today to discover that my gear had been stolen. My canon 20D, 5 lenses, 580ex speedlight, 5 cf cards, and ikelite housing is GONE. Well the good news is that everything that was stolen except my new tamrac 5263 rolling camera/computer bag, and my gps system is covered by insurance. Hopefully the process goes smoothly. I think I am going to opt to take whatever money they offer and start from scratch with my gear. I guess I will take advantage of the situation and upgrade to the 40D. I'm sure it will cost me some, but look at the bright side right? What are your thoughts about the package for the camera and 17-85mm lens or the 28-135mm lens? Or should I just get the body and then buy any lenses separately. It doesn't make sense to me that the kit with the 17-85mm lens is almost $300 more than the kit with the 28-135mm lens.
