 A: We’ve got a wide selection do you know if you’d like a point-and-shoot, or something a little fancier? Are you shopping for yourself or for      
 someone else?

 A: Ah, well then I’d recommend a nice entry-level digital SLR.

 B: The Canon Eos. Yeah it’s ok, but I’m looking for something that performs better in low light, has a better display panel, and longer battery     
 life. /ˈbæt̬.ɚ.i/                                                                                                                                    
 A: Oh, ah, umthe Nikon D60 is a nice option.                                                                                                        
 B: Yeah, but what kit lens does this camera come with? I don’t want some bulky telephoto lens.

 B: Looks to me like an 18-55mm lens. pretty standard, that will do. Not like my husband will be stalking celebrities or anything!
