I took the old 20D out today to shoot Ted and the kids playing golf. This confirmed that the camera works fine in shade and overcast conditions, but overexposes drastically in sunshine. This makes it fairly unusable as far as I’m concerned, given that 99% of what I shoot is outdoor sports. I decided to shoot in RAW at the end to see if that would help, and it did. So maybe I just use it in RAW until the end of swim season and then send it back for another look. There is also a used 20D for sale at B&H for $289 and I have a $50 gift card so it’s tempting to just buy that one until I move up to the 1D series a year from now. Gotta mull that one over a bit but it is intriguing.
