    Also, I was contemplating moving over to Nikon, but now that I'm used to the Canon DSLR and how they work, I'm going to stick with them.

    Nikon / Canon / Sony debate is a bit like Holden / Ford / Subaru.

    I like the range of lenses that you can get for the Canons, there always seems to be more on display in the camera stores for Canon over Nikon.

    I am wondering what the difference between IS and non IS lenses are? Is it internal stability or something to help with anti shake????????????

    There is a 1000d with non IS lenses twin lense kit that i can get from my uncle for $750 through his retravision store, but im stil not sure about the 1000d would be good to have video might have to look into 450d?

    I reckon that video is a fucking crock of shit on DSLRs. Its only the crybaby compact users who made the manufacturers involve such an un-necessary function on high end cameras.

    At the end of the day, the difference between the 1000D and 450D is 2.1 megapixels, 14 bit colour depth and a bigger LCD screen. The spot metering on the 450D is a great feature though...

    Worth a read...

    And if you're using the 300mm lens from the twin lens kit, I would probably be inclined to go for the IS version...
