[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 352026, member: 15356"] Welcome! I hope we'll be able to help you be as thrilled with photography as we are! :D I would add my two cents too, but instead I'll offer just one piece of advice. Don't even try to get everything your wanting right away. Get a good Nikon and a good lens, then work from there over time. I'm saying this for a reason. If you buy most of the stuff you think you need while on a budget, you'll likely find later that a lot of it is just not good enough, leaving you unhappy with the stuff. I would recommend getting a good Nikon that seems like it will work the best for you, and get one lens that will allow you to start shooting stuff you like right away. Then as you go along, you can buy what you feel you need most, getting a good version so your happy with it. :) [/QUOTE]
