Mine is on its way and will be delivered on Monday. Initially I was going for the body only, but then I figured that I might as well get it with the kit lense. EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS for only a $100 more? Why not? I am planning on having this camera with me at all times so, at only around 200 grams, this one will make for a perfect general use, walk around lense. While at it, I also ordered a second lense - a Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM. This one will be my indoor lense since I find the flash to be very obtrusive in a socia setting, and this baby open up to 1.8. This, ofcourse, means that I now have to get a camera bag, as I can't just throw a dSLR and lenses in my regular bag, as I did with my SONY H5 (which has served me admirably for two years, I should add). Tamrac Messenger 4 fits the bill perfectly.
. On the outside it looks like a regular messenger bag, but inside its padded and has adjustable compartments for a body and lenses, which means that I won't have to look like a tourist till actually get to where I am shooting at.
. First photos and impressions coming up some time next week. Stay tuned!
