Does anyone want a fun shopping task ?
I am able to get a Nikon D50 w/ 18-55 lens for $650. I have some budget left over after that for accessories.
So - head to http://www.henrys.com - go into the Canadian dollars section, and figure out a way to accessorize me for under $600.
Keep in mind that you are shopping for someone new to DSLR, who will be shooting kids' photos, portraits, some wildlife, and whatever the DPC challenges throw my way.
I already own a tripod.
I do need a memory card.
Come back with your list and tell me what you would get, and why.
ETA : I just lowered the amount to $600 because I went to future shop and picked up a couple of items. First was a 2GB Kingston SD Card and card reader ($50) and the second - a 350GB external hard drive ($150).
