The 450D body only is $1050 but surely it would be worth spending the extra money!If I was in you shoes (and lets hope the 350D gets stolen and travel insurance gives me a new one lol) it would be hard to go pasthttp://www.qualitycamera.com.au/product_in...roducts_id=352540D Body and 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens. I had that lens on my camera for a while (befpre upgrading to a Tamron lens) but the camera and lens certainly cost more than 2K.If you dont want to spend that much, the 450D enthusiast kit comes in around $1799 or the twin lens kit for $1400ish.Also keep in mind you will probably spend more money on a case (I have a storm case for when im out fishing / boating / camping or any place it might get damaged), maybe a bag (official EOS bag or a lowenpro backpack depending on where im going), maybe a tripod (which you will use for shots of the city and your car at night) and of course some memory cards.

Brother in Law just bought one but I don't know how he feels about it yet as he took off to Europe for 2 months but I know he was impressed after playing around with it for a couple of days.My 2 cents worth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chubbzilla Member 289 Member For: 17y 4m 12d Gender: Male Location: Perth Posted 30/06/08 11:28 AM Share Posted 30/06/08 11:28 AM yeah true, all the extras do add up. BUT I've always liked photography, and it'll be something I'll always use, (this is me justifying spending big $$$ hehehe) and in the past I've gone for lesser models of other things (guitars etc) and been left wanting, so I've since learned to go for the good one from the start, and be happy having all the goodness, even if it costs a few more bucks.By the way, Netplus in Osborne park have 1tb hard drives goin for $184 if anyone's interested!!! Awesome price, Netplus terrordriveI bought myself one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what else have you added to get the extra KW's? I'm starting to get the feeling that I need more power as well. Did you notice the extra KW's from this last tune as you were already around the 340 mark weren't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
