The 50mm will give you great available light possibilities (equivalent 35mm film camera 80mm f1.4 or 1.8!) and the 28-135mm Canon is an IS (image stabilized) lens that will allow 2-3 stops lower shutter speeds when engaged, a very cool "walking around" lens and not overly expensive or heavy. Then all you need camera-wise is a good, high capacity compact flash memory card. My pick would be the new Lexar 1GB 32X card for about $400, or at least a 512MB from Lexar or SanDisk.Next step is learning Photoshop and color management.Check the tutorials and forums at:
