baroque trumpet newbie... any tips?

Hey guys,

I'm wanting to get into Baroque trumpet and was wondering what instrument should I start out on and what pitch tuning I should get? I don't want to spend a lot of money but will pay around 1000 or so for a decent axe.

I'm assuming that the D trumpets come in 440 and period pitch (415?) with crooks.

Thanks again,

Trent
