You will also need to buy decent cf cards 1gb+ if you plan on shooting raw, a couple of extra batteries, lots of HD space, image processing software etc.
It soon adds up and you can easily spend 2-3 times the amount of the camera body on extras.

Yea, i know, that's why the 20D is a little too much because i have already calculated the extras like two lenses, a 18-55mm, a 55-200mm (maybe a 70-300mm or 100-300mm instead), the "handgrib" for extra battery backup, and instead of a huge good quality telezoom lens i'm prolly going for the 2x extension also to get up to 400mm, not as good as a real 400mm lens ofcourse, but much cheaper.
I'm still not settled on if i'm going for the 55-200mm lens and the 2x extension, it will maybe be a 100-300mm lens and the 1.4x extension, the 1.4x have much better quality than the 2x according to reviews.
