Well, yes, when you consider you can grab a D50 for 600 USD with a lense or a 350D for a little more, again with a lense, and that the really "good" lenses start at 600-800 USD, you can easily tell the stock ones are "cheap". But I always noticed Nikon's one is better than Canon.. I really have to get rid of my 18-55 and buy something better.. since I got the 70-300 IS I try not to use the 18-55 anymore and whenever possible I will use a friend's L lenses because the stock one sucks donkey balls compared to real ones  |
Thats one of the reasons why I'm going with a D50.. It will save me some money initially because I wont want to buy another lense right away... and I will have more money to spend towards a good lense
I've tried out a Rebel XT with the stock lense and the picture quality is no where near the quality of a D50 shot with it's stock lense.
