I am in the process of setting up my own business as a photographer. My current camera is a Canon EOS 40D and I think it is a brilliant piece of kit.

I don't think the 50D will be much different  :y

A few people have said that i have spoken to, i am currently using a Canon EOS 10D and a variety of lenses. I have been very pleased with the results from it and that is why i am thinking of another Canon...

Ive got a 20D

Had a play with a friends 50D with the 18-200 IS lens

A nice combo, im very happy with what I have, and to be fair the newer one doesnt really offer me anything I NEED over what I have.

Saying that though, the 10D is quite a bit older and longer in the tooth, and would be a great upgrade.
