Agree with the post above, there looks like a lot of crap in that bundle and you'll probably hardly ever use most of it.

I've only been in to DSLR photography for the last year, before that I just had a point and shoot.

I'm lucky in that my father is into photography and after he upgraded I got his old Canon 7D and then purchased an 18-200mm lense. Other than a filter and a memory card, that is all I had for 9 months and then now I've added a tripod and a wide angle Tamron lense.

I didn't know what it was that I wanted, go and pick a few cameras up in your local shop, see what you like the look of or how they feel. Personally, I just liked the Canons (and my dad always had Nikon stuff as well). Neither is better or worse and especially for a novice like me, both will do what I need.

Whilst some of the entry level cameras on paper sound like a bargain, when I actually looked at some they did feel cheap so I'm glad I got a higher quality one as my camera will always be far too good for what I use it for and I won't need to upgrade for ages.
