Comments about Canon EOS 550D 18 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera Body Only:
I bought this camera for family/holiday photography and it's a really serious piece of kit! There is a quick start guide, so I was able to start taking shots right away. When I figure out some of the more complex functions, I plan to take a few more "arty" pictures. I also bought a zoom lens, rather than the standard lens to give me more flexibilty.
