Thanks for the advice guys. Camera should arrive tommorrow so look forward to getting out and testing it.

I'm not going to focus to much on parts. If see a newer lens cheap,I'll take one. How do you tell a newer lens from older version ?

I have bought a canon 350D camera that comes with tripod,batteries and a 18-55mm lens. It is in very good condition along with the lens. I have noticed people advising to upgrade the lens for a newer 18-55mm. What makes the newer lens better over the older ? Not sure I'll notice the difference.

Yeah,a few friends who are Keen photographers said that it is the lens that makes the camera. Maybe paying to much attention to mega pixels.

I am in the same position also. Just been offered a canon 350d with lens for realitivly cheap. Was told it was an old camera but would still suit us beginners.
