Thank you.
Yeah but we don't have buck....this will be more debt...not sure if this is a smart move...I just need to learn how to spend money and enjoy life more. Sometimes you gotta say what the F right? :beerchug:
:agree:

You really can't go wrong with any of the cams discussed...but you'll get more bang for the buck with that used D80 for sure. I don't blame you for avoiding used cam stuff tho...it can be intimidating. Matt got some great deals but I'm sure he was nervous. :)

Yeah, $1500 on used glass from two different boards, from the EC sure did give me pause. The one guy fawking hounded me about when I sent hte payment, because I sent it regular first class, not over night. Nutjob photogs. At any rate, I fawking STOLE the 12-24, and got a decent deal on the 18-200.

Highly doubt J would buy something without seeing it first. I think the 40 is what we'd like to play with. Maybe we could upgrade in a few years :beerchug:

That gear was spotless best I could tell. All told a very sweet set of deals. You will love the D700 & 14-24. :D

:beerchug: The D40 is a great kit...do you have a local Costco? They usually have some decent kits in store...at least by me they do.

Any luck in the camera search last night? What about Pics from Sat?
YES! We are going for the NIkon D40 w/tripod, zoom and bag from best buy. :thup2:

Haven't gone through the pics yet...maybe tonight! Thanks for all the help & suggestions guys!!! We really are looking forward to getting into this. We've talked and talked about it and think this will be really good for us. :thup2:

Hey, if you haven't already bought it, I could have A check at Costco. They usually have the D40 uber cheap.

D40/18-55/2GB card is $479.99 online, which seems high to me. Maybe BB has it better.

Can you get the body only anywhere? If so then you could take Matt's 18-55 lens and go with a different zoom down the road.
