Canon fan boy here, rather than get a twin lens kit see if there's an enthusiast kit with a better quality IS USM lens.

Im a little confused about the canons nommenclature well not really just want clarification..
I want to get a decent DSLR so i wont have to upgrade for a fair while.. Now looking at the 60D which is the replacement for the 50D? With cannon does the lower the number = to a better camera. i.e 5D/6D?? Is there much benefit with either one of those over the 60D apart from the price. Now lens, what size lens do most people commonly use? i.e 18-100mm etc? I want to get a decent single lens rather than the twin lens kit.

You want the lowest number you can afford.
The way I see the range: 1D - Pro 5D - Pro portraits 7D - Pro sports Saying that, unless you want the whizz bang features of full frame or massive frame per second shooting a 60D is great. Lenses - Get L series glass for the best photos. For walking around stuff I use a 18-200mm lens. Not the best photos, but they are pretty good. But if you don't want quality and want practical, just get a point and shoot. I've taken better pictures on Georgie's Canon G10 than with shit lenses on a DSLR.

The only catch is there's different versions of the 1D, 5D etc, so you have to watch for that also.
I have taken some ripper photos with a point and shoot, some times it's better to keep it simple so you can quickly snap a photo rather than worry about buggering up a number of different settings. I usually put my DSLR back onto Auto mode after i've been shooting so I can quickly snap something if I need to. |

Yeh my friend has a 500D i think and use that all the time in auto mode, havent bothered with anything else at this stage as its not my camera.
So thats why i was thinking of getting a 60D which should have more features if required that i can learn to use..

My advice...
If you are using a SLR on auto mode, get a point and shoot.

The 550D is almost the same specs but a lot cheaper, then if you find you love photography spend money on lenses and upgrade to a better camera body in a few years.

Loving the 60D so far....
A little fill flash to get rid of the shadow on the cars ass end.... I still reckon the Pentax Kx is great value for a first Dslr.
