Is this a good combination for a digital SLR camera?

I can not say for sure about the price because they have no real prices of the Canon Rebel. I know that the Rebel is a good camera (not much). The target price set up a red flag for me. Rationale: is obtained what you pay for $ 200 and is cheap, either to one of the crystals, much less two. I would be concerned with quality. Yes, you can send them back, but still lost in shipping. Sigma makes good lenses. I fear that these would be what is called a "slow lens" which means you need much more light to get a good picture. If you are going to get a body, and the target (s) separately, I advise you to spend more and get better quality lenses are "faster" or need less light. In addition, a common problem with cheaper lenses is what is called chromatic arboration. This is a halo blue or magenta, or a ring around contrast bright objects. Di street lights against a night sky. This can not be filtered, and is a real pain to remove in the gallery of the store. A lens with a high level of CA is useless when shooting the high-contrast images (bright and dark image against each other). If this is your first SLR, then consider this. Want to spend about $ 1,000 on a camera you'll want to upgrade it later? Or would it be better to look around, do some research, save your money and then get a very good camera that will keep you happy for years to come? Unless this is just a fad and / or just want to say you have a digital SLR camera, I would suggest that spending more money (over the range of $ 2,000) and receive a higher quality camera lenses high quality. Worthwhile in the long term. Check out Steve's digital cameras, Digital Camera Review DP Review. All are great places for more than ads will tell you. You can also look at other cameras you may like better. In my opinion, you are looking to get a digital SLR for less than $ 1,000. And that means you'll get a low quality team. I did it once, ONCE! If you are looking for a luxury camera to take pictures with it, then this is not wrong package (I rethink lenses though). If you want to move to digital SLRs the ability to use different lenses, and more control of exposure, then there are better cameras out there for much more money, no. But this is my opinion. Yours is the view that matters. Whatever you do, make sure to have the slightest remorse for later. Hope this helps.
