>>406072I saved up and got a canon T3i with the kit lens (18-55mm) and a telephoto zoom lens far dem wildlife shots from far away (55-250mm) with the camera and the two lenses, it cost me $696, but I'm sure you could find the same camera used on craigslist with just the kit lens for around 300-350. The cheapest DSLR you can buy from canon I think is the T3 which is 400 dollars.
