I have finally decide to upgrade from point and shoot, but I'm having a hard time deciding what camera to buy.

I have around 1000-1400 to spend on camera + lens,

Iso some suggestions

This is what I'd suggest if you don't think you'll be upgrading to pro models in the future.

From what I have read so far on the net, I'm leaning towards the Nikon D5100,

I saw a pack on Amazon -heres the http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-Digital-18-55mm-70-300mm-Accessory/dp/B004ZL9ZPG/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1320111525&sr=8-5

are those lens good or I'm better off buying those you suggested ?

The 18-55 is pretty bad, the 70-300 is decent but not for what you're shooting.

The 18-55 is great for a kit lens. I'd suggest to everyone starting to get an 18-55 before getting a 35 prime.
