thanks for the link eeky poo

e: is this info from the sticky still relevant

If you get stuck between choosing a newer Nikon or a Canon Rebel, remember this: all new Nikon DSLR's (D40, D60, D80 etc.) can only use the newer Nikkor lenses.

When you buy a Canon Rebel, it is capable with all EF/EF-S lenses.
So you can find cheap older lenses on eeeeeeebay, that are still capable with a Canon Rebel!

It depends on camera to camera. but it's still generally true.

No. The Nikon bodies can use ANY old Nikon F mount lens of any brand. Some of them, like the D40,D60, D3000 have issues with the auto focus is all.

Yeah, should of made my post clearer. It's the autofocus that you'll be losing.

P.S- You saw thru my evil plot! Was gonna make him go for canon
