(That's the point someone was making before)

Your money should be primarily invested into the lenses is what I was told
by numerous photographers. So don't worry about all the newest doo dad
features on the camera itself. You won't know how to use 90% of them
without taking a photography class and learning how to use them.
All your editing is done with software these days.

Put the money in high quality high quality aperture lenses.
Canon are durable metal construction. Tamron and Sigma feel cheap.

Shop Ebay or Amazon.

The EF 28-135 IS Canon lens is my all around carry lens. (Recommended by photographer)
I have an EF 70-300 IS lens as well.

However, if you can afford the "L" series, that's what you really want.
I have read and heard the same...invest in quality lenses.

Thanks for the sites. They have good information.
