Not too bad! I would just google that model and check base prices other places to be sure.

I stopped by a local camera shop. They said almost $1000 for the body and (1) additional lens.

The best camera information I have found is on:

www.kenrockwell.com

As far as digitals go, I'm fond of my Nikon D50. Not too expensive but does what most other high end SLR do.

Dunno. Wife came up the other day and said I want the Olympus FE-190. I said I would look for a deal. She goes your gonna buy me what ever you like.
Told her to hold on. Used a BIT @ 140 shipped, and said it will be here in a week. It's a factory refurb but it looks new.
Olympus is selling there own refurbished there also.

Is all that other stuff worth the 140 extra to you?
I think that deal you found does look good. I'm just not in the SLR end. 250 or under for me.

i have the canon rebel 8.0 mp SLR - GREAT camera! only prob with it, is it is too big to carry on the bike. so i opted to buy yet another camera. the camera i bought to carry while on the bike is a Nikon S7c. it is also an 8mp camera. this camera has WIRELESS pic transfer. it also has 1 year free T-Mobile hot spot pic email service.

OK I'll chime in here.

For one of the Best Digital camera resources out there, check out DPreview

Also check out the Digital camera Comparometer

Select one camera, then select another camera to compare it against.

I've been reading reviews at DPreview for years, and they are generally spot on.
