The two biggest fish in the sea are Canon, and Nikon. They both have a wide array of lenses and bodies to choose from, and you can't go wrong with either. As I am most familiar with Canon, my recommendations are based on what I know. If you are interested as to what the Nikon equivalents are, contact me and I'll be glad to help you.
Knowing what I know, below is what I would buy if I were starting from scratch.
Under $1000:
- Body: Used Canon 30D
- Lens: Tokina 28-75 f/2.8 and a Canon 50mm f/1.8
- And a 430 EX Speedlite
Under $500
- Body: Used Canon 10D
- Lens: Used Tokina 28-75 f/2.8
There is nothing wrong with buying used gear. of the 5 DSLRs I've owned, 3 of them I bought used. More importantly though, don't get wrapped up with gear. Just shoot with what you have.
