[quote=Anonymous]My rebel is almost 5 yrs old and it was a GREAT beginner camera. It's not too expensive (and yours is a better deal that comes with some useful accessories). I disagree that you don't need some of the things in the package. A tripod is essential, even for a beginner, if you are in a low light situation. Also, a UV lens is key for protecting the "good" lens against scrapes, knicks, etc. As for lenses, the kit lens is a great starter until you get comfortable with the settings, how to use it, and get better at composition. The flash - as with all on camera flashes- should be used sparingly, imo. The idea of lighting is a whole separate discussion, set of accessories, techniques, theories . . . and one that is difficult. I'm just starting to learn. [/quote]
