Skydive2 1 #1 April 18, 2003 I'm getting setup to do video (again), and I was wondering if anyone knew where to get the best price on a Canon Rebel 2000 is? B & H I'm assuming? Also, what len's would everyone recommend? I'm thinking of getting a 24mm or just leaving the standard 28-80mm lens on it. Suggestions? Thanks!!

christopherm 0 #2 April 18, 2003 I just went through J&R and got the Rebel 2000 for $199 (body only) and a Canon 28mm F/2.8 lense for $169. I'm sure if you are patient you can find better deals on Ebay. It's also a lot cheaper to get the zoom lense with the body but I really wanted the fixed.-So, how hard is the ground?!

Blue skies Lance Skydive Maryland Ive seen the rebel 2000 for as low as $145 recently. This sucks cause mine cost me $250, as far as lens's, I would recomend the 24 I originally bought the 28 and it worked real good for tandems and 4way but just wasnt enough, I hope to buy a 20 someday, but I think I want to go digital so Im waiting before I shell out any more cash on equipment. I dont reccomend the 28-80 for skydiving video get a dedicated lens you will have much better results and its smaller. Good luck with the Rebel2000 its a good overall camera and its pretty tough for being so lightweight. Ive hit and dropped mine a bunch and it still works fine.
