Keep in mind these tips:
1. There are variations to kits, for example you might want to add a telephoto lens if you know you will be using it from the get-go. There are kits available with a full range of filters, camera bags, and extra lenses.
2. Megapixels vary from camera to camera. If you plan on enlarging photos, aim for a camera with higher megapixels for clarity and sharper images. But, honestly, I have an 18 MP camera that enlarges photo to 16x20 very nicely.

Although I've been a Canon user for years, I'm personally tempted to go to the other side and try a Nikon just so I can argue both sides of a coin. Heads, Canon, Tails, Nikon. Win-win. If you have a favorite brand, some, I know, prefer Sony or others, leave a note in the comments! I'd love to know what people shoot with.
