My husband just bought it 2 weeks ago and is very satisfied with it. He chose dbetween Canon 50D and Nikon D90 but he really preferre this camera. Also the lens included in the kit is not that bad (18-105mm) those others got only 18-55mm. You can just buy other lens if you want a specific shots (macro, sports, etc) else, the lens in the kit is already okay. We have not considered yet to buy another lens as my husband is still familiarizing with the camera. But as what one review say about this, this camera is for those spontaneous photographer. Hope this helps.
