Spec me an entry level DSLR. (for my web business)

[Adam Senior]

So I am finally settled in the USA (long story) and I have got my Social Security Number through so now I can work.

Now to the need of a camera.

I am setting up my own webdesign business and my first client is a small professional business. I want to be able to use my own images for my websites, in turn I can charge more ect.

I used a D7000 in aus for over 2 years (underwater) and I do have experience with SLR's, I am more of a creative person rather than a camera tech nut. Also my knowledge on lenses is not the best.

I am looking at getting myself a decent camera that I can use to get a decent level of finish. I would be using it for general people shots, Interaction of them in meetings, meeting clients, at work ect. (not sure what would be the best lens)

Also I have a current client that wants a whole new support page addition including a video support page, so decent video quality will be needed.

I dont really want to spend more than 800$ (that would be me super max) yet I want something that will last me and also give me some decent results.

Thanks in advance.

I was also looking at the Canon EOS Rebel T3i.....

Okay thanks guys. The tree company have the (Canon EOS Rebel T3i 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera and DIGIC 4 Imaging with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens) for $599 which to me seems good, then I would have the option of expanding later. For $780 you can get the (EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Standard Zoom Lens instead) I am sorry for been such an amateur when it comes to lens configuration.

The T4i (Canon EOS Rebel T4i 18.0 MP CMOS Digital SLR with 18-55mm EF-S IS II Lens) seems about $40/$50 more. Guess I need to do some more reading.
