Beginning amateur SLR - Canon Rebel
I am thinking of buying my first SLR camera. I was thinking of starting out
with Canon Rebel Ti with a 28-105mm lens. Any suggestions/comments ? Any opinions about the new Rebel T2 (this seems to be $50 more expensive than Ti) ? Is it worth it ? Thanks!

Pretty good combination.

Avoid the 28-105 f4.5-5.6 in favor of the 28-105 f3.5-4.5, a much better lens. -- Skip Middleton http://www.shadowcatcherimagery.com

The Maxxum 5 is the older model and is available very cheap. And unlike the Canon all features work in all modes. I already bought a Rebel Ti and gifted it to my father. Now I am looking to buy a Minolta Maxxum 5 or maybe the 70. HTH, Siddhartha

If you have some special type of photography in mind, there may be better choices. -- Joseph E. Meehan 26 + 6 = 1 It's Irish Math

Mostly landscapes/potraits. Probably not much of sports/action.
