[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 216341, member: 13090"] I'd suggest option two, the D5100 with the Sigma 17-70mm and the Yongnuo 468-II. That's a pretty sweet combination. The Sigma 17-70mm is faster, sharper and has more zoom than the Nikon 18-55mm so that's really a no brainer, IMO. Since you'll be using this lens pretty much all the time it seems like the best place to sink your cash to get started. The SB-700 is a great flash but the Yongnuo 468-II is as well and you could buy three of them for the cost of one SB-700. I've had a 468-II for a while now and it's been awesome.
