What upgrade from Canon EOS 350D + kit lens (16-55)

Hi,

I have put aside the idea of "changing everything" for the moment and will rather go for a progressive upgrade of my equipment. Which means staying with Canon.

My current camera is a Canon EOS 350D (bought in 2006) and the kit lens that goes with it. Now, I am hesitating on what to upgrade first... Should I change the body or go for a new lens?

I do landscape photos, monuments (typical tourist!) and I love night shots (although I am still learning). And I am not a big fan of multiple lenses and changing etc...

The different options are either go for a more modern body (EOS 100D?) or to go for a better lens (Canon EF 17-40L f4? or something else?).

Definitely, I'd like to stay within the 500-600$ budget

Did anyone have to face a similar situation? what feedback would you have?

Would the 17-40 perform well on my old 350D?

Thanks
