Camera Upgrade

[dhill]

Im in the process of looking at my options for a camera upgrade sometime in the new year.

Currently have a Minolta Dimage A1 digital camera, and am currently waying up the options of the following:

Nikon D80
Canon EOS 400D
Canon EOS 30D

These all appear to be in and around the same price bracket, for the bodys anyway. Kinda leaning towards the Nikon D80 at the moment though.

Would welcome other peoples views, comments, suggestions etc

Just currently looking through the online reviews at the moment, and just trying to get an idea as to which cameras i should be looking at really.

Oh definately!

Lenses are were it gets expensive though lol

Want a nice zoom lense (for close up sports pics & wildlife shots, everday kinda lense (family pics etc), and a nice macro lense for close up work.

Possibly the following:

Nikon AF-S DX 18-70mm (F3.5-4.5 G IF ED DX ) - for everyday kinda shots

And then either the following for zoom stuff

AF-S DX 18-135mm (F3.5-5.6 G IF ED DX)
or
AF-S DX VR 18-200mm (F3.5-5.6 G IF ED DX)
