With all that's offered in that bundle, the flash seems insignificant. As a matter of fact, anything more than just the lenses seems insignificant in that deal.

Just wondered if there was something glaring in the deal that would raise a red flag? Once again, seems too good to be true.

I have been waiting to pull the trigger on a camera (need to recover from my christmas spending) so I have been doing alot of research.

From memory (so I could be slightly off) these are the best prices I have found on some this stuff from legit places.

D80 Body $519


D90 body $839
18-55 $149
70-300 $149
50 1.8 prime $130

I would shy away from anything deviating to far from these prices.

Tagging along :-)

What's the difference between a D60 vs D80 vs D90 body?

This should give you a side by side


Didn't see Deanos' post when I posted, my link is slightly more technical while Deanos' post is probably more user freindly.
