well my being disappointed for the last time by my $100 point and shoot camera i have narrowed it down to these three camera's now the lenses and everything else is going to be purchased separately, any advice would be appreciated.

 

i just made a camera thread! you should have just added to it!

 

**** your camera thread!

 

D40!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11


just fyi nikon and cannon are the only 2 companies to even bother looking at for best quality in camera's. next step below is olympus and then everything else below that

 

after playing with my sisters d70 i am not gonna cheap out on a camera.

 

^^^ Big x2. Tho I'm saving my pennies for the 1DS MK II or MK III .... drool.... Canon D40 & D50 rock... The Rebel is good if you are limited to less than $1k.

 

i believe EVERYONE in this thread said they used a D40, and this is what they were able to produce. so i see no need to spend for the D90. and yeah, i really mean that in that just about all of them said D40. crazy i know...

 

i am expecting to pay atleast $1k for a body.

 

plus the d90 is only $1k and well when it comes to equipment i dont skimp out.

 

d7000! I borrowed my friend's for a video I made and it was really awesome!

 

I have a D90 and it is very capable. You can get them slightly used from KEH in Atlanta for a great price. The amount of in-camera processing is you can do amazing too.
