I hate to start ANOTHER thread about new cameras, but I couldn't find what I really wanted. I'm really wanting to jump into a new SLR and I'm not sure where to start. I'm leaning towards Canon because my digital point and shoots are canon and have had good luck with them. I have one Nikon and I'm not happy with it. I was looking at Canon's Rebel XSi. From what I understand this is a new camera for Canon. It's "in my budget". Also, from what I've learned so far, its more about the lens than the camera. Am I correct on that assumption? I was looking at an XSi kit that included the camera and a Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens. Is this a good set up to get me started with general (more advanced) photography? OR.... should I get a less expensive camera and focus (no pun) on getting the best lens I can afford? Perhaps the Rebel XT or XTi?
I really want to start getting better pictures of my hunts, time with family/friends/, cars, boats, etc etc. Advice on a proper lens/camera combos to start with is very much appreciated. Right now, my budget is in the $1000 range.
