Achal, I´m keeping my FD equipment (F1 old + T90 + lenses + accessories) and use the EOS50 just when I need it. I decided to buy the EOS50 to be able to make some money with photography ... muggles (non-photography people) give more respect to a photography with a autofocus autoeverything camera with a huge lens and flash than for a one with a F1 old ... so ..... I´ve already bought a Canon EF 50mm f1.4, great lens indead.
