Hi,

I am thinking about to buy an dslr cam, took a look around the web and found the canon eos 1000d to be a really good one and is avail at a decent price.

Whats your opinion about this, someone use it?

Also, what kind of lens is a good alround to start with?
The eos came with a 18-55 or as body only.

The standard 18-55 isnt a bad starter lense, i still use mine now.

Thanks!
So I think i will give the 18-55 a try.

will stay at canon cos I used them cams for years and was happy with them.

i recently brought a nikon d5000, with the 18 -55. Going to practise with it first and when I feel ready I will get another lens.

18-55 is a good all round lense,been using mine for a couple of years now and have had no problems with it, have recently upgraded it tho.

make sure you practise with the basic first, with me I wanted to know the features and what each thing did first along with practise in taking good shots/focus. I know im going to getting the next lens, but for the moment I can work with being closer to the subject if need be.

MannheimAlex

thanks for all the tips!!

Bought me one now, got a nikon d5000 with a 18-200 lens for a good price.

now will get some practise with it and some photoshop skills.

MannheimAlex

Yes, really impresive but it seems there are millions off settings!!
