You dont aways need the Newest and Best

You don't aways need the Newest and Best. I bought a Older 20d canon to be exact and compared those photo's to my newer canon and you really cant tell the difference. my point is if your just starting Photography it doesnt hurt to buy an older model to practice with

The 20d was 1500$ when it first came out now you can get one for around 60$ and take amazing Photo's

while its nice to have 9if you can afford it) the latest and greatest camera and Flashes. its not necessary. you can still take amazing photos. the best camera is the one you have or better yet the one you can afford
