What 4-4.5k can get for you:
400D with kit lens and 1gb + filter is around 3.3k based on G88 but i believe you can get lesser for that.. let's just make it at 3k.

add a batt grip: rm480
50mm f1.8 mk II: rm280
cheap tele lens 90-300mm: rm650

i think this is really a good combinations for a newbie like me. I've seen the pictures taken with the 50mm f1.8 is very inspiring. but is it necessary to get the tele lens?

ok it's time to upgrade the lens now. i've tried EF-S-10-22 F/3.5-4.5 USM (wide lens) & EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM (tele lens) borrowed from my uncle. they are damn awesome.

planning to get EF 17-40mm f/4.0L USM or EF-S 17-85mm f/4.0-5.6 IS USM
one with L and another one without L. price difference 500

i'm already bored with the kit lens. not enough satisfaction
