I think you have to take in account for the "crop factor" of the camera body or something…
Both of the answers here are right and its important to note they called it a crop factor not a maginification. It is a common misconception that you get more zoom using FX lenses on a DX ( aps-c ) camera. You get no more optical magnification (when you put a 300mm lens on a DX camera you do NOT get a 480mm lens – it is still a 300mm lens) you do get the same angle of view or crop as the longer lens. This makes it seem to produce greater magnification The part of the image that fills the frame is different think of it like croppping an image on your computer screen
A good article on it is here

Remember crop factors are for FX lenses on a DX camera
Is there any other differences between the black and the silver Canon Rebel XT body other than the colors?
No difference whatever but if you’re ever trying to take a candid or doing wildlife, you’ll appreciate the fact that the black camera will not attract as much attention from your subject(s) as the silver camera.
ok, here’s the thing, i have a nikon FG-20 film slr camera, and it has a sweet vivitar 35-105mm lens, that deliver a very deep depth of field, and can focus on a subject from a large distance away and example of this is

and i was hoping to buy the nikon d40 and attach this lens, accept on amazon.com, yu can’t buy just the body, and with it’s kit lens it’s : 469$, and i don’t really need the lens.
whereby, the canon xt, with body only is 389, and i can attach a canon 50mm f/1.8 lens, for around the same price.
1) which is better in terms of image quality( the nikon d40 and canon rebel xti)_
2) which lens is better the 35-105mm or the 50mm lens?
please help me ,i want to be a professional photographer, and i don’t want any " chop chop" answers, but one will get 10 points and a good comment, please helpe me with this
Yours interrogatively,

Since you already have a good lens that you are satisfied with, and will fit the Nikon, I would get that one. Look at other places to find one where you can buy just the body.
The Canon is a good camera, too, but if you are thinking about the 50mm lens, you have to remember it is not a zoom like the lens you already have.
Why don’t you go to a good camera store like Ritz and hold both of these cameras. You will be able to tell which one you prefer by doing this. See which one feels the best, and which one is easiest for you to use.
Both are good cameras, and image quality depends on the lens you use. Have fun taking pictures!
The EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact Macro is a consumer-level macro lens. It is constructed with a plastic body and metal mount. This lens features a distance window with infrared index and magnification markings. On the extending lens barrel, another set of magnification markings can be found, which range from 1:4 to 1:1 and correspond to the magnification factors when used with the optional Life-Size Converter EF (see below). A 6-blade, maximum aperture of f/2.5 means this lens is not suited for depth of field effects, except at short focus distances. The optical construction of this lens contains 9 lens elements, without any special lens elements. This lens uses a front extension focusing system, powered by a micro motor. Auto focus speed of this lens is moderate, and does make sound. The front of the lens does not rotate when focusing, but it does extend considerably.
The EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact Macro can produce maximum magnification of 1:2, not the 1:1 of other Canon macro lenses. The optional Life-Size Converter EF[9] will allow this lens to produce a maximum magnification of 1:1. Attaching the converter costs the lens aperture size to f/3.5, the focal length to 70mm, as well as a reduced focus range. This converter is advertised as being proprietary to the EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact Macro. However, the converter can indeed be used with other lenses–in this case it focuses as both an extension tube and a 1.4x teleconverter
do i only need to buy a lens (and a battery, charger, memory card) and i’ll be set? or will i need other hardware in order for the camera to work (hardware that actually goes on the camera)
You will need to buy a lens and a couple of memory cards .. 1GB or 2GB cards are cheap now.
The battery, charger, USB connector, A/V cord, body cap and a CD of the programs that you will need come with the camera.
Nikon is selling kits with their cameras this season, some with the 18-55mm and others with it and a 55-200mm lens. The first camera lens combo is under $600 on sale.
The antics of those valley girlz will make you laugh, tickle your rib cage as they chase real golfers on and off the golf course at the Camp Laurel fundraiser. Girls cut up and act silly all the while dumb as foxes this pair. Never get their hands on an actual 9 iron. Just like to look, eat and drink and make fun of people, arguing, and complaining about nothing in general. Never boring, this pair can hang with the best of them and eat In and Out Burgers like pros on the golf course. They jam the pedal to the metal as they careen in their runaway golf cart, charging the hills and valleys, tearing up the terrain. But they just can’t get arrested for nothing.
