Best Buy 60d with 18-135 for $1147.00 or Costco 60d with 18-200, canon bag for $1299.00. The Costco deal is about $150.00 more. I have read about both lens but am having trouble deciding. Opinions appreciated.

Thanks,
David

While I wouldn't call either lens particularly good, I'd say that the 18-135 is better than the 18-200. That would have to be a really nice camera bag for me to spend the extra $150 on the Costco package.

ditto on the lenses I would look at a 15-85 or go sigma 17-70os or 17-50. the 60d is a nice camera and deserves a better lens.

A good camera helps a good photographer; it doesn't make one. If you're going to use a filter, make it a good one.
