Ok, so I think I've about decided after looking for a long time on the Canon XSi. It comes with a EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS and the EF-S 55-250mm f/4.0-5.6 IS lenses. Amazon has the combo for a price cheaper than any used camera I can find.
Have never used anything but a point and shoot, so I've got a lot of learning to do. Know we've got some photogs here, what other stuff do ya'll recommend I get right off the bat besides an SDHC card ... through my research seems like I should get UV filters (or lens hoods) for both the lenses and put em on right out of the box? I know the telephoto extends and rotates, so am assuming this rules using a polarizing filter (or just makes it a pita).
