Because it's a lot of money.
It's not the money per say I am certain on the body it's the lens choice that is plaguing me and how much to spend, what to spend on. For example I can get a brand new D7000, 18-105, and SB700 for right under $1400. I could also get a plethora of configs within a couple hundred bucks of my budget.
I would highly recommend getting a cheap $60 or $70 flash. I have the SB700, and I haven't used its TTL feature in a very long time. I bought the YN560 flash for $45, and it's more powerful and just as consistent but it has no TTL.
As for the lens, to tell you to go one way or the other would really be shooting in the dark. If money isn't really an issue, buy a bunch of lenses, try them out for a couple weeks and then return the ones you don't want.
