peterke - im glad you like my site - look for updates coming towards the end of this week. i hear what your saying about them pulling the d60, but canon has to offer a "low end" digital camera in the 1800-2200 usd $ market to compete w/ the nikon d100 - if its replaced by anything, look for something w/ a bigger buffer, faster write time and firewire capability. for a lens, a 24-85 F3.5-4.5 ULTRASONIC BLACK canon will run you $280 from www.keh.com brand new, but i think judging by what u want to shoot, a 28-105 F3.5-4.5 MACRO ULTRASONIC II canon will suit you a lil better - u will loose a lil on the wide open end, the 28 will act more like a 44mm - but even around family and friends, the differance between 28mm and 44mm is one step backwards - the real gain is on the zoom end, the 105 is more like a 170mm and at $220 new, its a great bang for the buck. if your looking for one lens to carry everywhere, check out the tamron (yes the quality isnt as good as canon, but its still a great lens) 24-135 F3.5-5.6 TAMRON ASPHERICAL SP IF AD MACR0 which goes for just under $400 new
