Magicdragon, you seem to have read my mind! :) I believe I will go for 550D simply because it felt good in my hands, stick with the kit lens since I don't think I'll save much by just getting the body and buy the 50mm f1.4 for good sharp portraits. At some point, I'll get a wide angle lens...

Last night, I went and got a feel of D90 v 550D. I don't have large hands so I felt D90 was a little bigger and heavier esp when I compare that to 550D. If the lens is heavier than the body, will that be a problem (eg wrist hurting)? I see that scenario happening with the 550D more than with...

If I were to purchase a D90 in the USA, would the battery charger be an issue? I suspect it's universal but just wanted to make sure of that.

Recently, I felt the 550D for myself and I like it! It was with kit lens 18-55mm which probably would not last me too long...I'll likely be looking for another lens in a few months which then really adds on the weight. A friend of mine is a fan of Nikon's D90 and her shots are AMAZING. But...

Since there are probably quite a few female photographers here, it'll be interesting to know what camera they're using, don't you think? I don't often see ladies using DSLRs and weight is probably the biggest factor. But I'd really like to know what DSLRs are favoured by our female photographers...

Thanks everyone for your comments. :) Do you know much about Canon EOS Rebel T1i camera (15.1MP)?

I'm not experienced with DSLRs but am considering getting one. Which would be your choice? Considering I'm female and would be concerned about lugging something too heavy... Any pointers or comments also appreciated. Thank you~~
