Actually, my budget is around 5k area..so im thinking of 40D and EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM.

new set 30D + 17-85 IS kit lens is Rm4.2k and it's a steal at this price. Limited units available.

17-85 IS itself cost more than 2k

technically, i require something that has iso of 3200, and 6.5 fps is something i need. Cause for school i handle events like sports and performances that require that iso and a fast camera.

Remember one thing, the pictures that you take for them, dont give it FOC. Charge the students if they want a printed copy. if not, you're the one that loses out

GUYS.... im thinking of buying a 40D.... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..... should i or shouldnt i? upgrade lens and stick with the rebels or upgrade body? ><!!!!! confusion.........

im really tempted to the 6fps, liveview and magnesium body,etc  of the 40D..... blah.................. ><

When there's a feel, there's a need. Go get it. lol. 40D is good but i still like my 30D's feel because it fits my hand perfectly whereas 40D's grip is a bit higher and it's hard to reach the buttons on the top part without straining your fingers while holding the cam.

RM4k+- IINM biggrin.gif Still deciding whether to go for 28-70mm f2.8 L or 17-55mm f2.8 IS sad.gif

28-70 is a freakin heavy lens. I tried it and it's not my cuppa. Lotsa ppl complained about the weight but heck, it's an L lens

how about a sample pic from a 17-55?tongue.gif

Oi Oi Oi!!, you guys sweat.gif shopping spree ka? Dah dapat bonus? shocking.gif Dont buy the stuffs other people would buy. Get what you need. Standard zoom lens is the first thing to get to replace your kit lens. Flash, batt grip and tele lens? Do you really need it? Do you shoot in lowlight most of the time? Do you shoot vertically most of the time? Are you compensating for the fact that you dont have to be "there" to shoot?

The alternative to the 28-70L, the sigma 24-70 smile.gif around 1.6k.

alternatively, i'd say go get the EF24-70. around the same weight but i'd hit it. laugh.gif

you want a cheap flash but almost the same guide number with 430ex and supports ETTL-II, i'd recommend the sunpak flash. only 600+
