    body only correct?

    I'm still want to go with Nikon, maybe D50 with Quantaray 28-90mm F/3.3-5.6 Lens, bascially it's a new body with a so-so lense. Regular priced at $549.99, current sale is still $549.99 with lense and 50 dollar coupone for next purchase at WolfCamera. I think this is the best deal I've found for a new body. If anyone have andy advice or found better deals, please let me know, thanks a lot.

    This is almost exactaly what i did. I got the same lense and only paid $50 more at wolf camera... I was warned about buying a "body only" camera becuase it's "illegal" to sell them without a lense and if you are doing that you most likely will not get your warenty... My total after lense, camera and two 512 memory cards ($100 total) was about $700.

    I LOVE my D50! Theres so many things you can do with it, it's going to be a while until i can use it to it's full potential... Good luck with your decision!

    Oh also, when i bought mine, I got a TON of free tickets for photography classes at wolf camera. I didn't even know i got the free classes until after I bought it and was about to leave!! What a great surprise!

    This must be a Nikon thing cause Canon sells just the body. It makes no sense to "force" you to buy a body with a lense when you might already have several lenses.

    I would think that Canon sells similiar kits like Nikon, and vice versa since they are so competitive. :confused:
