Overpriced

Anything more than $50 (for the body only) isn't worth your time - it's ancient in terms of digital technology at this point; you could certainly learn the basics, but you'll soon be disapointed with performance and IQ as they are not up to current standards.  Notice that you'll find a poster or two who is very aggressive in telling others how the various model of outdated camera they own is still relevant, etc. etc. ("How dare you say otherwise - I'm so offended!").  This is a reaction of nostalgia and a need to defend what they own or have owned at some point in the past - it's best to avoid these types IMO.
