Very quality pics can be taken with it though. It's an under-rated lens. If you know what you are doing you can make your pics stand out even with a point and shoot. I rarely use mine anymore but learned a lot from using it when I started.

you can not make up for shitty glass with a change in settings. Sure a skilled photographer with a kit lens can shoot better pictures than a novice can with quality glass, but shitty glass is always going to hold you back.

I held an XTi after using my 30D for quite some time and I couldn't stand it.

The thing still out shoots me which is why I haven't upgraded to anything "current" yet. I'm a firm believer in the Canon camp. My recommendation for a noob is XTi/XSi with battery grip and an assortment of glass. Go from there.

No, the advice you're missing is: megapixels don't mean dick without good glass. If you get kit glass you may as well be shooting with 6MP

(price per megapixel mainly) it came down to the fact that i had about 5 to 6 hundred dollars to spend on a dslr, so the choice for me was between the Nikon D40 and the Sony alpha 200, the Nikon being 499, and having 8 megapixlels? or close to it. and the Sony being 500 and having 10.2 megapixels, i went with the Sony. The real nice thing with the Sony is you can have full manual control like an slr should be, but the automatic setting are very similar to a sony point and shoot camera, so if you are familiar with a sony point and shoot and you dont want to deal with the slr settings it is still a nice camera that takes really nice pictures. Here are a few that i took one night outta boredom.http://fargostreet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14804:icon_salut:

No idea if it's nice cuz they haven't taken it out of the box yet though.

As far as getting started, get on a photography forum or take a photography class if you can. Also read the manual that comes with the camera right away. It is a good way to pick up on the different features of the camera and how to properly use them. I think the D40 or XTi would be a good choice (the XTi is only getting cheaper now that the XSi is out.)

something like what Rexwagon has...None of that shit bASSplayer and faghasaids is taking about, they just like spewing out expensive camera names to make them feel like they know what they are talking about.

I have the S3 IS and love it. Lots of zoom and some good features without getting into the ballerness of a SLR.

If you want to go with an SLR a Canon Rebel XT, XTi, or the new XSi. I prefer Canon but there is also the Nikon D40.
