What camera for me (as my first ever DSLR) would be the best choice? I am very interested in photography, and have been reading for hours and hours about lenses and all that theoretical stuff.
So, I have the possibility of getting a Canon EOS 40D for $550 (used camera body only, no lens)
I would also buy a Nikon D90 with the kitlens (18-55mm) for $1000 (also used)
Or perhaps I should buy an entry digital SLR, for example Canon EOS 500D with kit lens for $800 (new from store).
So, what would benefit me the most? The 40D shoots 6.5 images per second, which is handy as I think I'll be taking some action photos.
So, every opinion is appreciated, but try and put yourself into my shoes: a beginner that's eager to learn to take good photos, and willing upgrade to better lenses when I find a concrete use for them. $1000 is the absolute max I am able to pay for this equipment at the moment (poor student )

Thanks in advance
