a good prime macro is the tamron 90mm. Also works for portraits in a pinch.

Jaline honey,
Don't blow the bank on your first camera. Whatever you get for your first one you'll either outgrow or it'll be outclassed in a year or three.I'd stay away from Olympus as I've never really been convinced by their image quality and wacky sensors but whichever route you go make sure that the body you get allows for Apeture Priority, Shutter Priority, and if possible full Manual. I'm not sure if the really beginner models offer those features so double check. Being able to do Mirror-Lockup is also a bonus if you're shooting long exposures on a tripod. Vistek or Henry's might have a used or refurbed mid-range model from a year or two ago. Talk to their sales rep and tell them what you need it to do.
If you love photography and continue to make a go of it, you'll be way better positioned to make choices on your next body.

Heh.. The problem with Canon is there are no good cheap standard zoom lenses for it. I would get a Rebel XT and a really good lens. Lenses keep their value, a recent Rebel's value will drop in a year. Megapixels don't mean that much.

for cross border price checks.

Also consider adding a fast prime to your kit like the 50mm f1.8 II. I think it's only $129 but you'll love the results wide open.

Canon Rebel XSI + Canon 100mm Macro Lens gets you a little over $1000.00.
