Okay, I know....it's not so much the camera as the lens and the skill of the person, but I'm curious to know what everyone else is using. I shoot mostly with a Sony a65 w/ a Sony 18-135 lens. I also shoot with a Sony HX100 in places that don't allow DSLR's (until I get my media credentials). It's a hybrid that has the majority of the features of a DSLR but without the ability to change lenses. With 30X optical zoom, it's great for most sporting events and concerts.
What do you shoot with?

Expensive hobbies we have! New Camera or box of Opus X??? Damn decisions!
Really been looking for a T3 or T3i but can't find any that aren't nuts in price
Just wait until you start checking out lenses!!!
This! I have been able to snag most of mine off the used market saving a decent amount. But yes, good ones will cost you a few boxes of cigars.Just wait until you start checking out lenses!!!
ughhh I don't even want to start with lenses...a simple 18-55 will suit me fine...at least for the trip
Road tripping from GA to CA. Stopping at several breweries as well as a meet up with Mr. Huber that I am way excited about! My family has not ever really been out of GA/AL, so taking them back to where I came from is going to be awesome. It is somewhat of a bday gift to myself as well. After I get back from Afghanistan we take leave around Dec 15...so yeah, super stoked...now just trying to find a camera of worth to document it.
Damn that sounds like an awesome trip. Jealous. You might be able to find a used T3 or T3i if you check out any local camera shops. We have a few shops in town that sell used gear. And that gives you a chance to pick up and try out the camera to make sure everything is working and you like it before you buy it.

The bad, still shooting with a 30D.....the not so bad, picked up a 70-200 2.8 when I bought it(along with the 17-85 kit lens that came with it). Really want to pick up a 7D, but travel fees continue to make that a want, not a need.....
Singulary bought a DLSR and the lens to take pics of my kid(now kids) playing hockey, which I couldn't do before with the P&S.... They have, along with their respective teams, been able to watch their years playing in photos....
The big one....
..and little one....
