Hello

The Canon 20D is a great camera and the newer version the 30D is no better..

For a bit more money it might be worth looking at the new 5D which is somwhere around 12 MP and a similar size to the 20D

Good lenses are the EF 24-70mm f2.8L USM or the EF 70-200mm f2.8L IS USM..

Maybe a 1D Mark2 as these are really good cameras and well worth the money over the 20D.

The only problem with the 20D depends on how much you are shooting as they only rate the shutter for 50,000 shots then it will need to be replaced and it costs a bit as they replace the shutter, mirror etc

The 1D Mark2 is rated at 250,00 shots before the shutter needs replacing and is of a more solid construction..

I use the 1D Mark2 as my everyday camera and i think it is the best camera for all round use..I have thought of upgrading to the 1Ds but the extra money does not provide the extra benefits, in my opinion anyway..

It has always been my opinion to buy the best you can for the most you can afford and you can't go wrong with the Canon gear..

Hope this helps
