Exuse me for a sec while I stop drooling over myself.... I wanted save up ot buy a D60 or a Rebel XSi (Still Deliberating) over the summer. Now having seen this, it would probably be more worht it get this in the long run, especially since my interest in photography continues to rapidly increase. This would still be a solid camera 1o years from now. Great Value for awesome set of features and a top of the line mid-to entry lvl professional cam
