And I think I have my mind set on this lens (I think someone mentioned it earlier in this thread): http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...2_8_EX_DG.html
It's $1K less than the comparable lenses from Canon.

You will love that lens....
And I've read ahead, and I totally agree that $100 for a flash that'll not make you made isn't an option... $300-$400, and it'll be some of the best camera coin you'll ever spend.
Simply said, light and lenses make the picture, so the body isn't unimportant, but you might find you own the lenses and flashes a lot longer than the bodies..
