Sorry for the delay in responding. It was a very busy week at the office. Now that's a very helpful recommendation.  I was unable to find any 450s on Canon's refurbish listings, but did purchase a used 450 body from Ebay for $150 + shipping . It should arrive today.  I also ordered an AC adapter kit and Tokina AF 100mm f/2.8 AT-X M100 Pro D Macro Lens new (arrived yesterday!?!) for $437. So except for the suggested sftwr I got everything for just under $600. Perfect numbers!

Can't wait to start playing. I'll start using the Canon sftwr first to see what it has to offer.

Thanks again

Thanks again

"...  my little point & shoot or iphone are more convenient for everyday photo memories."

I don't know?  Once you see how much better any Rebel is to a P&S or much less a iphone  , you may want to jump right in there with the rest of us.  One lens is never enough!  They are addictive. 

Happy shooting...........
