Hey guys, here's my "problem".
I've been taking photography a little more serious in the past 6 months, I've taken some courses and I plan on learning a lot more, take some more classes and improving all I can. I've been doing all this with my Canon S3 IS, which has quite a bit of manual functions and takes overall nice pictures.
The kind of photos I usually take are: portraits, flowers and plants (closeups), and live concerts. My camera works fine in the 2 first, but the live concerts pics are always awful (horrible light conditions most of the times).
Anyway, this month I got a bit extra cash and I thought I could use it to buy a Canon EOS 400D, which is the best I can afford (cameras here in my country are VERY expensive). But I read that the included kit lenses are not very good... If this is true, then I guess I won't buy this camera after all because lenses cost a lot of money and I don't think I can afford it.
So, my question is, do you think I should buy the EOS 400D or am I better off with the camera I already own? (considering I probably won't buy any lenses any time soon)
Thanks
