Hi,

Both the EOS 3 and the Rebel 2000 and 3000 use IR sensors for film advance -
and both fog significantly. Also, the EOS 3 has a hole in the backplate
(though it doesn't have a date feature)  which makes a serious density
difference to the images. Too bad as the 3 is a decent camera...not plastic
on the inside - solid feel to it.
