    Like others have said the Rebel is a good camera. It will last you a good long bit of time before you get the itch to upgrade.

    I know because i've been shooting with the original rebel for three years and i'm just now buying a 30D next week.

    Some have said that that is the photographer, not the gear... and to an extent i think that is very true... however, I feel that if you are just getting started you really do need the proper tools.

    Once you know how to take a good picture with a good camera, then yeah, you can go back to your point & shoot and turn out some very nice stuff, but you might never learn proper metering and exposure with a point and shoot.

    oh, and if you can afford it, do yourself a favor and get something better than the kit lens. If you can't, it's not a big deal. so just go have some fun :)
