I got the XTi last week. I didn't go with the lens kit, I upgraded to the 17-85IS! Seems pretty good to me!

Have fun!

I have a friend who is a professional photograper that is going to give me some lessons! Can't wait!

Here is his website

Peace

just to touch up on the DSLR for Dummies guide ():

--SLR stands for Single Lens Reflex. SLR cameras are what you call WYSIWYG cameras (what you see is what you get) whereas p&s cameras aren't (usually).
--When you look through the viewfinder, you looking at two mirrors: One that angles from the viewfinder to the ground and another that angles from the sky out through the lens.
--P&S cameras use a video feed to capture their photos. SLR cameras use an actual shutter, which can be heard. some p&s cameras have a true shutter as well but is about 1/50th the size of an SLR and isn't as effective.


there is more but it isn't coming to me right now. feel free to ask, there are plenty of knowledgeable people in here.
