My first Nikon was the Coolpix 950 which was a two megapixel camera. Later I thought of updating and ended up with the Nikon D50 which I've had for about a year and a half. Few months ago I picked up the D80 since the D200 seemed out of reach for me. Prior to getting the D80 I had gotten the Nikon 18-55mm and 55-200mm zoom lenses. Then I got the Nikon 85mm f1.8 prime lens since I wanted to shoot my granddaughter playing volleyball indoors. My flash is the Nikon SB600 which I just love and gives excellent results. You can shop online and get a good price on it. The lens I would suggest is the Nikon 18-200mm zoom lens. With my two zoom lenses I require constant changing lens which I wouldn't have to do had I the 18-200mm lens. Both Sigam and Tamron make lenses in the same range but I would suggest staying with Nikon though that lens is hard to find.
