With that said the lenses are the most important thing. If I were to start over, I'd get a good used SLR, and put all the other money into lenses.
What kind of Photography will she be doing?

I don't really know what she wants to do other than start taking classes. I've got my hobby, I can't really say much if she wants to spend a few hundred bucks on a camera when I've spent thousands on my car.
But like I said to her yesterday when I walked inside with my Papa Johns Pizza, "see, you said the Camaro would never pay us back."
