why try and save and get a cheaper body.

You will spunk more on lenses with sony.

Just get a canon, its more expensive but long term IS cheaper.

I'd advise to spend as much as you can afford, as you'll get higher spec, which you'll miss at a later date, and end up upgrading anyway.

not about spec if they are not going to use the functions.

Key things for SLRs is the glass, you can easily update a body as they tend to beout of date in 6months-1year. If you have 3k invested in glass for the 'wrong' system you cant just ditch it and get a different body.

Why at this stage choosing the right system is FAR more important than the overall spec. Glass is what counts.

[Ryan]

not if you are planing on buying new lenses

sony are expensive for glass
