Alright party people, I need some help.
I'm trying to help a friend put together a kit for around $1k for a trip to Europe he's taking this summer. He was debating between the T2i and the T1i, and after a good deal of reading, I'm recommending that he go with the T1i. I say that because the T2i is still very new and will see a bug or two and I don't want him to get screwed and be camera-less in Europe. Also, the additional 3MPs and other variable frame rates will mean nothing to him.
Here's where you guys come in. I'm scouring the internet looking for a kit with: T1i, 18-55, 55-250 (Lord, forgive me), 50 f/1.8, a sling bag, an extra battery, and a memory card.
I'll be searching as well, I just figured you guys wouldn't mind helping out.
EDIT: I'm trying to avoid giving him an eBay kit with the awful fisheye and macro extension tubes with 1000 other POS items. I think that'd be too overwhelming.
