Got a bargain

(Miles - 3/20/07)

I bought new in box with kit lens for 400 dollars, so I'm very happy with purchase! It is my first DSLR so I cant really compare it to anything except my previous kodak point and shoot, and there is really no comparison!
The included kit lens is horrible, especially in low light but a very good 50mm f1.8 prime lens is available for under 100 dollars that is a great low light performer! I also got two Sigma lenses 28-70 mm f2.8-4dg and 55-200 f4-5.6dc, for under 150 dollars each!
May someday get better glass, but for now these will have to do. I also got a sunpak hotshoe flash for under 100 dollars at best buy that greatly improves indoor flash pictures! With a little playing with it, this camera gives a perfect shot every time and I highly recommend this camera. Just get the body only, and with the savings buy the EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens...cheap plastic lens with really good optics that will produce very good pictures!!
