I love my 50mm the manual focus is kinda annoying but soon enough i should be upgrading bodies.
After the body I have my eyes set on a 24-85 f2.8-4 or the 70-200 f2.8

It's official tomorrow I am picking up my Nikon D90 with the 18-105 mm lens... so unless they do a c-section tomorrow after the doctors visit I'll have it before the baby gets here

There shouldn't be an "or" in there. It should just read "I have my eyes set on a 70-200 f2.8L"
Trust me on this.

Its on the wish list. I just bought a SB-600 with Christmas money.
Spending 2300 on a lens as a college student isnt in the cards. Its on the wish list though.
:-) I have all the lenses I need for a while (minus a good macro)
I cant wait to get out and shoot with my new flash any pointers from the PROs?

Wow where are you buying your lens? A 70-200 2.8L (non-IS) can be had for just about $1000

The Tamron 70-200 2.8 is a little over 700 not as crisp but its still pretty good.

NOT a brand snob Both brands are on equal playing fields (as far as I am concerned) and if I can get into Canon for a reasonable price I will go that way. The 50D and T1i have my attention as of now.

Just ordered myself a Canon T1i with the two lens kit with some christmas GC money. The stock lens plus the 55-250mm EF-S. I'm hoping to get it before my trip to New Orleans on Wed, but I don't think it's going to make it.
I have a canon XS, which is awesome, but I did an infrared modification on it for astrophotography, and now have to use a custom white balance and grey card every time I shoot or change lighting. Kind of a PITA for grab and go shooting.
