I just pulled the trigger on the nikon a few minutes ago.

if I dont like it, I'm sure scott will upgrade to it as a favor to me.

nah, I appreciate the "small steps" but i think it's pretty close in terms of minimum level of features that I wanted without getting overly complicated like a D90 or something. I probably would have gone with a D3000 except it was reviewed as "klunky" and has no live view.

but enough about the cameras.... i've gotta learn about taking PHOTOS.

I don't have a pic of the above 4 cameras, I'm still a novice but Meg and I run Canon's. She had a film Nikon and we didn't like it at all. I have a rebel XTi and she rolls the 5D and I think the canon's are great, it's fun to swap lenses too if need be. There is a lot of merit to the high-dollar EF-L lenses imho, but again I'm just a novice and took this with the standard $50 50mm prime lens & flash while the dog was jumping around. Most of the pics on my site were taken with her 5D/24-105 f/4L lens w/o flash and low light.

It's like I want to jump out of my chair and watch her jump back. Love it when they do that whole "oh so you think you can catch me?" deal lol

Nikon D80 and 18-200VR is all you need. Then you add a 11-16mm because you're a wide angle junkie and you're like me.
