Thanks again.

I had a very quick look at both the Nikon and Cannon today, i think i will probably go with the Nikon as it felt much nicer in the hand. i Thought the Cannon seemed to feel fragile and cheap. But that's just me. Do you think i would be netter going for a body only and adding the 18 - 105 lens or just sticking with the 18 - 55?

Hi I know it�s an impossible question.
As a user of Microstock photos and someone who has been absent from taking photos with a SLR for many years (we are talking film). I was wondering what Camera would be a good one to learn from and not get to disappointed in any limitations.

The two I have been looking at are the Nikon D5100 (always wanted a Nikon) and the Cannon EOS 550D both seem to come with an 18 � 55mm lens.
The type of photos I current buy are mainly beauty (makeup, hair, face etc.) I will also need to take product photos.

I would love to hear any ideas you guys have. Thanks
