Just wan to answer this last part: is OS/IS very important for a first timer DSLRfor body i m goin for canon 40D
but here comes the problem.

No
Why? I assume that this is your first SLR camera, so my apologies if I assume wrongly. I do not think its a good idea to get a IS/OS/VR lens on your first try coz it makes the user lazy to learn how to control his or her body. Better to learn how to use a non-IS lens now then later. Learn how to take a picture without shaking or at least keep it to a minimum.
And if anybody wan to ketuk me for this.. i dont deny it. I am very old school.
