Yeah but it's got the VR, well worth the extra $$. Plus I think the canon is a little more than $500

I don't think the 50D is cheaping out

You made the right choice as spending more money on lenses is better than buying a high end body and using cheaper lenses. I used to take publishable photos with a Canon Rebel. It's all in the glass. you will be more than happy with it.
