not a bad price but i saw the same package w/ no extended warranty a week ago for $525 shipped. the d80 was $600 for the body only and the d90 is coming out very soon but over $1,200 easily.

Killer, what are you going to be shooting mostly? There are tons of "good" lenses, but really depends on what you want to use it for.
Also what is your budget?

well i wouldn't really recommend that lens, unless its all you can afford, then i would just say wait and save. if you do get that lens, make sure to get the VR version, i dont think its much more
