Okay, I currently have a Canon S2 and recently have really enjoyed taking pictures. Im still a VERY NEWBIE and still actually learning the ins/outs of aperture, etc. I really wouldnt even say I know what Im doing totally with the S2 yet, but Im trying to plan my future. I can already tell Im going to quickly outgrow this camera and want to build an SLR setup. Problem is, I really dont have much of a clue... WIth the help of a friend, I came up with this list of pieces to put together. Im looking for any and all suggestions... Since Im just an amateur starting out, I really dont want to spend TOO much money. I was hoping to stay around $1000. This setup here puts me around $1200 with some smart shopping on ebay, etc....
Question, IF i did indeed go with this exact setup, can someone tell me what my limitations would be? What would I be "missing out on"?? Or would this actually be a pretty good setup? I dont want to rush and buy something Ill soon regret. Id like to do it right the first time and forget about lenses, etc and spend more time trying to take pictures....
