It is a great camera, especially for the sale price, I am sure there is a newer version coming out. I would suggest seeing if you can find the camera body only and then buy this lens: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nikon-af-s-dx-nikkor-18-300mm-f-3-5-6-3g-ed-vr-telephoto-zoom-lens-for-select-nikon-dx-format-dslr-cameras-black/5897007.p?id=1219171880184&skuId=5897007 This one lens replaces the two that come in the package deal and adds an additional 100mm.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Since your stated budget is under $1,000 and you will be taking pictures of; still life, architecture, flowers, people and domestic animals, we would recommend this kit PLUS the Nikon - AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Macro Lens. The macro lens is available for purchase at Best Buy and is perfect for taking pictures of flowers, still life, and portraits (both people and domestic animals). The 18-55 is a good starter wider angle lens to assist you with your architecture shots. As far as snapping a bubble blowing in the wind - make sure you have a fast shutter speed and plenty of light if you intend on freezing motion.
