Or you could get Kodak T-MAX 400 NC (or is it CN?), which is propably one of the best films in the world for b&w shooting. But that goes at about 20 for a 25x roll. Which is a bit overkill. For colour, though, Iīd suggest Agfacolor Vista series based on reviews, which goes from 5 and up, afaik. But again, I havenīt tried it myself.
Still though, these films are all useless for everyone below a top-level professional level. If you actually pay heed to how many T-grains there are in your film, you donīt need neither advice nor a care in the world for the price of the film. Seeing as most people donīt see the difference between a Kodak Gold and a FujiFun or whatever they call it. People who photograph on such a high level either use the D1 I mentioned earlier, or have their own very personal taste on what they like.
(This post was originally much longer, but I think itīd looked as if I started to get aggrevated, which Iīm not

So I sliced it down to size. Point is, though, film isnīt all that important. In my opinion.)
As for objective, an EF 20-35mm f/2.8 USM would be really nice for your camera, then. Iīm using one on my D60, and itīs simply brilliant. Highly reccomended.
