Lean:
If your getting it in the new year just wait until sales start - you will defo get better prices than what's about now.

edit- so thats probably the same deal then with the kit at those places. so everywheres about the same then. hopefully it will come down a touch after crimbo :smiley:
cheers for the help :drinking:

Lens wise i recommend getting yourself a 50mm AFS 1.4AF - totally awesome little lens. Additionally you will want a 200mm zoom the 18 - 200mm 3.4 - 5.6 AFS VRII is a very good starter zoom look on ebay for this. would also recommend polarising filters for both. However you probably wont get any change out of £800 for both - unless you find an eBargain!

Just remember the vat goes back up in jan
NB07:
ooh poop almost forgot about that J but i will have to swallow it because i know i cant do it now until mid jan so will have to take the hit, then next on the list i will be saving for my exhaust even though ive been telling myself that was priority lol things change, we need a few good holiday pics next year!
scotta thanks for the heads up, ive been out of touch for a few years so ideas of lenses is great help. i really wanted a lens i can use day to day for landscapes/ portraits like what you get in the kits then was thinking about an almost macro lens for hobby photography. we used to use 35mm at college and i thought it was great but i suppose a 50 would have more depth of field, its been a while so please excuse my ignorance! actually it wasnt that long ago maybe 8 or nine years but lets just say i was too busy doing other things! now i think i can appreciate the time and effort put in to it a bit more! : :laugh:

My guess is the January sales will be driven by 'additional' 2.5% 'off' and 'No VAT increase here' sales..... so doubt you'll have anything to worry about
