Beginner's Camera

["Jason R. Karlin" <wingman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to all who responded to my inquiry about starter SLR's for IR.  
I've researched a lot since my last post, and I'm seriously considering a
Canon EOS 630.  This is because I already have a Canon EOS Rebel and
a lens. The 630 uses a mechanical counter, and I like the illuminated LCD
for night shots.  I found that the OM-1, Nikon FE, FM, F2, etc, might be
too expensive considering that I can't use my lens on them.  

I won't ask the terrible Nikon vs Canon question, but I will ask whether
there is a very good reason NOT to go with the EOS line (assuming I stay
away from the IR counters).  I ask becuase I notice from your websites 
that none you "real" IR photographers are using any EOS equipment other
than EOS-1(n).  So, is the Canon EOS 630 any good?  Thanks in advance.
