Don't believe everything I write....
One thing that annoyed me was how the 40D manual is written - much of it is written like the user is a morron. Same with the manual for my EOS3.
I asked the guy in the camera shop if they are all like that - I said that surely if someone is going to buy a $2000 - $5000 camera they are probably serious amateurs or semi-pros or pros and already know a thing or two about cameras and need not be treated like idiots. He relied 'Nope! Lots of people come in with no idea at all and just pull out a wad of money and ask what can they get with this...'
Note here, that I'm assuming that most people on Iceinspace are not idiots (although some seem to be...) and are actually serious about their camera and astro gear, even if they don't know a lot about it initially, they are willing to learn.
Good luck with the 40D!
