 | Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens
Buy new: $99.95 / Used from: $83.99 Great value on a dedicated portrait lens. Close-up shots are great, and the lack of an image stabilizer forces you to take better pictures. Highly recommended.

 | Canon EF 55-200mm f/4.5-5.6 II USM Telephoto Lens for Canon EOS SLR Cameras
Great for sporting events, if the stadium lets you in with it! Nice when you have to stand far from the source and there are lots of inconsiderate people with point-and-shoot cameras in front of you (like during weddings)! Again, no stabilizer, so either get a tripod, or be VERY still!

 | Canon Digital Rebel XT 8MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only - Black)
Buy new: $599.95 / Used from: $320.00 There are newer versions of this model, but this is arguably the Canon which put DSLRs in the hands of regular folk like myself! A great beginner DSLR with enough things to tweak and keep you busy for a long time. If you're an expert, this may only be good for a backup or second camera, but it serves my needs nicely.

 | Opteka 58mm HD2 Professional Filter Kit (UV, PL, FLD)
Buy new: $14.95 Still learning how to best use these, but since I got them in a package deal with the 50mm lens, I hope they prove useful!

 | Opteka 52mm Close-Up Set (+1, +2, and +4) with 10x Macro Lens
Fantastic when used with the 50mm lens. You can really get up close and personal with these. Perfect if you are shooting stamps, coins, food, etc. Anything which will benefit from minute details.
