of cuz I would buy it la
I love my camera. This is exactly what I was looking for~!

but then I don't know what other things are you going to get after buying the kit lor....it's a very 無底深譚 ar.....

As a basic idea even trying to use the cheaper stuff:
for myself in 3 years I bought 4 lenses, all USED (2 were the very cheap ones! together were like a bit more than $200), then after using them for 3 years I finally moved on to L lenses.....(but the one I chose were already the more affordable ones).....together were like $1200......

also got my camera backpack, about $5XX HKD

Hesitated for very long in getting a good tripod and external flash
finally my bf was good enough to get me a manfrotto tripod for christmas (I think should be somewhere less than $200.....)
and I still need my flash!!! Used ones are around $2xx- $3xx depending which model.....

sigh.....
so much to buy +_+

Who told you that a 10MP can't take real good photo in large print??

How big of a printout you are looking for? It depends on the ISO setting and the lens you are using...

BTW, in Canada, Canon only provide 1 year manufacturer warranty. Does it fit what you need? If you are those C9 who will drop the cams 3 or 4 times annually, I beg no DSLR warranty will help you... haha...

    hey, if you are looking for a Canon flash.  I saw Broadway Camera has 430EX and 580 EX on sales.  I think the sales last to end of Nov.  New Flashes is cheaper than used.

I also borrow my classmates' film camera.  Oh my! the viewer is 2x as big.  I am in love.

2 years ago, I used a $200 DC for almost 5 years... At that time being I thought people spending that much of money on photographic equipments are "dumbs".

But when I started using DSLR, I have switched between 15 lens already. Currently I possess around $5K in equipments and still keep digging into the hole... . However, I'm happy with what I've spent so far.

For body ..  which depreciate more  .. but good to buy new, as electronic item, just safe to have warranty.

Lens, it is ok to buy used, rarely hv problem, but then they dont depreciate as much as body..

I bought new body, but usually buy the "KIT" then sell the lens off, so that can lower the price for the body a bit, and then I am selling brand new lens for lower price, easy too.

Just a hint, Canon/Nikon, their warranty is not transferable, and unlike HK, shops here usually put your name on the receipt. (or you can ask them not to)

Flash light, I do suggest to buy new too, as you dont know the life time on it, so it could die anytime ..  ( can more or less see from the condition gei .. just not as simple as lens )

For newer lens, pretty much only thing can go wrong is the internal motor, (AFS) and could be expensive. Not common problem on Canon, (I have owned some Canon lens for more then 20 yr, not problem) but say Sigma, and some early AFS from Nikon, their motors are not that reliable.

I know people would most likely tell me to go for 580ex......
but really would there be much difference to me who haven't really handled a flash light much?

I saw people on CL selling 430ex for $2xx and 580ex for $3xx......

how come new is cheaper geh?

I never thought it was dumb but just couldn't imagine myself doing it......lol

before I bought my dslr, my uncle warned me about not be able to getting out of the "hole"
and turned out, I went into the hole and he stopped playing with his camera.....lol
