    Welcome to CS Congratulations on your decision. Since you have taken time to do the research, why not spend a little more time & do the search on where to get it at the best price. Clubsnap is a great place to start
    Take the shot!

    D3000 is an entry level DSLR. Why not consider Pentax K-x 18-55 kit ($782). It has more value for the money

    Hmm well.
    I hear Nikon is probably one of the most popular brands,
    so there might be more people who could help me if I have problems etc.

    But I will keep that suggestion in mind!
    Thanks!

    You heard Canon is one of the most popular brands, thus justifying your choice of camera.... then why are you getting the D3000 then? It's from NIKON, in case you didn't know...
    Exploring! :)

    I was at SLR Revo on friday evening. Overhead someone enquiring about D3000, and the numbers "814" were punched into the calculator. This price was indicated as inclusive of GST.
    Exploring! :)

    Went to Funan today.
    Alan Photo sells the kit for $850,
    whereas SLR Revolution sell theirs for $814.
    John 3:16 wasn't opened today, so couldn't tell which was cheaper.

    814 is quite a good price for the D3000.

    just curious what other brands you have considered before arriving at decision to get the D3000...
    Exploring! :)
