Toushou! Sorry for giving gratuitous advice. But I thought I will tell you about my personal experience. First you have to choose between the two systems: Nokia and Canon. Professional photographers always went for Nikon, but now Canon has caught up. In the digital field Canon has got a small lead. (I have upto now relied on Nikon, though I have only basic cameras and lenses). Why I am suggesting it is that when you take more lenses, it is much better to stick to either Nikon or canon. Canon has recently come up with good reasonably priced cameras. If you stick to one brand, then I would sugest that you go for original brand of lenses, and not tamron or Sigma; Nikon has come out with G-series lenses which are reasonlably priced and which have non-mtallic bodies.I have found nikon 70-300 g-series good for general use. I would recommend Nikon 105 instead of Tamron 90. I bought this lens for my daughter (who is a professional photographer who is too busy now with her child), and she has been very happy with it. I have heard that it is difficult to clean up the fungus of Tamron 90, though it is entirely hearsay. Both Nikon and Canon have VF/IS lenses though they are expensive. Adesh is probably using canon VF 100-400 (he can correct me!), and he has given us some wonderful pictures (of birds). Kaysat-Satyendra Tiwari is a professional wildlife photographer, and he can also guide you, and yes, correct the above info given by me. Best wishes, akbhatt
