    I'm a beginner with a 550d and I have the 50mm 1.8. You won't be disappointed with that combo. A 550d will be good to learn with, I can vouch for that. Then, as you get better, you upgrade your lenses.

    My aim as I get better Is a 100mm macro, an 85mm prime and I 'think' 24 - 70mm zoom.... In the L series.... So more professional. THEN one day, I'm going to get myself the 5D mark ii or by the time I get it, the mark iii!

    Good luck with it. Photography is fun!

    Aimz - can you pm me your blog? I'd love to check out your pics.. I'm on my phone so can't check your sig! Don't worry, I'm not a crazy stalker!!! Lol

    I agree with buying online, I saved $300 on my last camera online.

    Thanks so much, will definitely be ordering one from there tonight!
    I ordered a camera from them in May of this year and was SUPER happy with price, customer service, and speed of shipping.
    I was hoping their prices might mean you could get the more expensive one that you wanted They have the 550D in a deal with 2 lens as well

    Just checking it all out now and also googled reviews. Quite a few people were apprehensive about them but all ended up with an awesome outcome and super fast delivery.

    I'm still in shock

    HaHA! yeh I did the same because they were $$$ cheaper I was skeptical, but I did a lot of googling and was convinced, and everything worked out fantastic, hence why I don't hesitate in suggesting them. I wouldn't reccomend them unless I had personally experienced them xo

    Ha ha! Not that I doubted you but I just couldn't believe it!

    So... what else will I need to order?

    I'm ordering the 50mm f/1.8 lens and it's my birthday next month so might get everyone to give me cash to buy another lens!

    WOW! Their prices are incredible. From looking they only seem to have inhouse warranty though, not canon warranty. Is that right?
