For an amateur photog, would it be worth getting a 50D or should i stick with the Rebel series?

you might want to consider 40D sir pat, its basically the same as 50D but a little cheaper.

40D will do just fine and yes it's much cheaper. :)

it's probably also a bit heftier to hold compared to the Rebel.

The only reason I upgraded.. Rebel is for baby hands only! :laugh:

a friend of mine with large hands is having problem as well with a small camera., a battery grip can probably make some difference

Even with battery grip it's so small. I don't have big hands at all, I just prefer a big camera, gives you a good grip. :)

thanks for the comments. the photographer we hire at the bank also recommended the 40D. i have yet to really spend time holding the 50D so i can't say if it will be too big to lug around.
i still have till the end of the month before i pull the trigger. :D
thanks
