That'll be fine to get you started...
You're gonna love it!

I concur, I have what I call a "Utility Lens", this is the one that I had on my SLR when we Rode last. 28-135mm f3.5-5.6. It is not the best lens and has a variable fstop, and IS (Image stabilizer) in your case a VR (Vibration Reduction, I think).
But this is a cheaper lens to get you started, and I still use it daily when I am not looking to get "The Shot".
This was the camera and lens that I went down on, and was glad I was not carrying my expensive glass.
F=MA is the sharpest tool when it comes to Photography, but he is off the board for now. Maybe I can stir him up and he can teach us all!
He is a great bug and a wealth of Knowledge in the Photo Phield.
Talk later,
PS
Let me know when you receive the camera, Keven, I just want to make sure you get what you paid for.

I agree it's not the best, but he did say money was a concern. If I'm going to go do serious photography I use my L lenses. 14mm, 100-400, and 45mm TS. I'm looking at the EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM for the next multi-purpose lens.
Okay boys, let's start a thread with some test and pics!!!!
I am wanting to see the new camera results!

Sounds good to me... I'll may end up bringing my nikon on Sunday if there is room...
One of my faves, Bubba...of course that says a lot for the guy behind the camera, as well...not just the equipment.
In this case it is Shutter speed.
That is a nice shot War69, Gotta love that 70-200 L

Between my plastered sister and phsyco neighbor, i got very little sleep.
Here are two contrasting shots.
The first is an example of slow shutter speed and small fstop
I think the settings were,
Shutter = 1/30
fstop = 22
focal length = 200mm
This was done just playing around to see what I could get, see the white streak from the bill of his cap to the sign? Thats the ball.
And this is an example of a VERY DIRTY Sensor, which we will talk no more of here.
The second is a high speed shot.
shutter = 1/1600
fstop = 2.8 (wide open) See the blurred background?
focal length = 200mm
Pretty much stopped the action, you can even see the dust off the bat when the ball hit.
In this case the blurry background (Depth of Field) is caused by the wide open fstop 2.8
Thanks for the ear
Bubba
the dirty sensor, is that where the black dots are from?
love the second shot.
Yes, the bane of photographers.
This requires a manual cleaning. (Camera was a 20D)
On my new Camera, the 40D, it has a self cleaning mode when you turn it on and off.

That second shot was hand held no flash. Image stabilizing on lenses are awsome. And shutter speed is what slows it all down. I believe that shot was at 800.
