SLR - Rebel vs D50

[Nednai]

I was thinking about getting the camera with the lense kit, should I waste the extra money or is the 18-55 crap?

 

For the nominal price of the kit lens, get it. It’s good to have a cheap lens to use in situations that you normally wouldn’t want to risk using an L series lens.

I was thinking along the same lines here... to save a few bucks I might as well get a lense that I could use in the "field" so to speak right?

You might find this interesting if you haven’t already made your purchase. From

Carl Zeiss have gone all mysterious in their placement of a message on their home page, it reads "Millions of SLR Photographers Will Soon Discover a New Dimension in Photography." At the moment we have no idea what this means, speculation on our forums and elsewhere ranges from a new Zeiss digital system (Sony?) to Zeiss lenses for Canon / Nikon mounts (a leaked image shows Nikon F-Mount Zeiss lenses). More information (according to the page) will be available tomorrow. UPDATE: More and more leaked information points to Nikon F-mount CZ lenses.
