Just picked on up, and its the shit! Got a kit with the body, 18-55mm lense, 55-200mm lens, bag, UV filter, polarizing filter, and some instructional DVD's. It has already pointed out my inferior photographical skills, but I'm workin on it lol. I may post up some pics later. That is all. [/excitedrant]
Ya, I'm diggin it already. I like it soo much more since I can control all the functions if I want. Plus all the extra capabilities. It was $950 and some change all said and done. The base price of the camera and 18-55mm lense is $800, so its pretty good deal.
Ya I've been readin up and spendin lots of time actually usin the camera, learnin what happens with each adjustment. Sweet, thanks for the link.
