Re: Range vs IQ: advice to make the move or not

I'm relatively new to DSLRs, and like you take 2-3 nice trips each year.  This year it is Costa Rica and Italy.  As travel photos are my main interest, and having $$ constraints, I settled on a 3 lens set for my T3.  I have a Sigma 10-20 for landscape, a Sigma 17-70 Contemporary for general use, and a Canon 70-300 DO telephoto zoom for distance or wildlife.  I am quite happy with that combo.  Don't mind changing lenses for a good shot, and all 3 are reasonably light in my back pack.  Would like to upgrade body to 18mp though (60D/T4I ?).  IS on all but the wide angle is a must for me, as seldom have a trpod when travelling.  If hiking, sometimes use a monopod & ballhead that doubles as a walking stick.

Enoy your upcomng US tour.
