let's say it's just for pictures that are going to be on a website and one doesnt need to do overkill... i dont need 800meg jpg files, i wouldnt want them over 175k...
Canon 20D is the shiznit! Media approved.. I got to check out one.. I also got to check out Aarons 10D, it was badass too.. great cameras canon puts out..

also, i'd like info on video cams...
best bang for your buck...
Konica Minolta Dimage A2 if you like it a bit smaller. has a great optical zoom and a nice anti-shake-mechanism.
and there are millions of video cams. like it cheap? buy a one-chip camera. like it better? look for a 3-chip model. mini-dv tape has still the best quality for small cameras, but the handling is more difficult than the ones with dvd burner. high-end would be something like Canon XM2 or Sony VX2100 - but if its just for internet clips you can also use a cam for 400 or 500 bucks.
I've been waiting for the konica minolta digital slr for the past few months and I'm getting it soon. I have good minolta lenses and that's one of the main reasons
I just purchased a Sony VX-2100 for video (I also owna Canon XL-1), and I like using the Canon Digital Rebel for stills. There are other more expensive camera bodies by Canon and Nikon, but they are all pretty big and unnecessarilly heavy.
For video get the Sony VX2100 if you you are doing run and gun type shooting. Most gonzo videos are shot with this camera which is good because often the camera guy is usually a total moron and has no clue about lighting. This camera is amazing in low light.
If you want a step up go with the Panasonic DVx100a The picture quality blows away the Sony but is not as good in full auto mode.
When you buy the Sony get a wide angle lens from Century Optics.
