  500 to 1K you can buy a pretty decent digicam!!!
  
  Well then, next question is, what design do you like?

  design? as long nt too bulky? I'm pretty fine with the rest.
  
  In fact, i wanted to get a Canon one cos most of my friends who are really into photography, use Canon.

  well if you haven't invested in any lens, any brand will do.
  
  any model that you are eyeing?

  if i was buying one now, i'd get one with a steady-shot.. coz my hands aren't that stable

  model? ok, that's where I'm lost...
  
  as for lenses, maybe after getting used to my camera or when I really feel there's an absolute need.

  the insects don't keep still, the shaking might compliment the final product

  well, i don't think lens would be much of an issue unless you get a DSLR.
  
  other than that... u can try looking at the models your friends use.

  hmm...
  
  maybe i should take some beta-blockers before i shoot stuff
  
  (can one get DQ'ed for doping in photography? )
