Hey,

i am new to the forums and i want to take up some photography as a hobby. I am currently visiting Korea and the DSLR's are cheaper here and you can bargain like crazy.

so far i have these i am looking at:

Nikon D40 with lens for $550
Canon Kiss Digital X (aka Rebel XTi) for $650 with lens, 2gb card, extra battery and flash
Sony Alpha 700 for $750 with lens

Which one of these or others would you guys recommend?

And which lens is the best for generic photo taking that can zoom etc but not too big..

Thanks in advance ; >
