DSLR camers for nature/ wildlife photography?

Right now, I am using a Sony H9 point and shoot for my nature and wildlife photography. It does OK for the most part and the 15X zoom is great for most wildlife shots. since I mainly just post my photos to my outdoor blog ( http://www.afreshpath.com ) the resolution and general quality are ok.

What I would like though is to find a DSLR camera and lens that would take photos of high enough quality for large prints and still keep the weight factor to a minimum…lots of extreme hiking is involved with wildlife photography!

Your recommendations are appreciated!

The new Canon Rebel model XSi is great. It is lightweight and not as heavy or large as Canon’s other full bodied DSLR’s. It also has a 3 inch screen and accept ALL of Canon’s lenses and accessories.
Best of all it is 12.2 megapixels. You can get the camera and an 18-55mm zoom lens at many camera stores for around $900. or cheaper at photography warehouse stores like those found in the back pages of photography mags. It has also received excellent ratings by many testing labs and photographers.

The way of Nature, Photography
