 | Canon EOS 6.3MP Digital Rebel Camera (Body Only)
Buy used from: $375.00 The essential. Make sure you get one with a US warranty, not a grey import (with no warranty). Many retailers offer both, so double-check.
|
 | Canon EOS 20D 8.2MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
Buy new: $949.99 / Used from: $399.95 If you have more to spend, this is a nice step up. Again, make sure you get one with a US warranty.

|
 | Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 EX DG IF Aspherical Lens for Canon SLR Cameras
Buy new: $379.00 Excellent large-aperture zoom, equiv to 45-112mm. Don't be fooled, Sigma's EX line isn't the cheap stuff Sigma made for $100 a few years ago... they've improved by leaps and bounds recently.
|
 | Sigma 24-60mm f/2.8 EX DG IF Aspherical Wide Angle Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras

|
 | Canon Wireless Remote Control RC1 for Digital Rebel
