Actually I would say its a rather smart move. Lets say you are Canon your high end market will probably be moving to a Canon 7D. But then you have this market full of a lot of people who are just...

Ditto I tried too...I see nothing wrong with what the lady wanted. You can get pretty darn good results from a Budget SLR and you can use a flash just because the OP doesn't like to use it does not...

Hey just to help out with your search:
I found the best thing that helped me was I went to a camera store and tried out all the camera's I was looking at (My budget was similar to yours) and I found...

I don't know if I was doing mainly landscapes I would lean towards a full frame camera just so I can get those wider breath taking shots with excellent quality. Especially for larger prints. So my...

Faisal-I believe the shutter was 1/60 according to my meta data. Like I said this was my first picture with the camera so I am still learning a lot about DSLR's just in general and I was just...

Faisal-Actually the picture did come out brighter then that I was just playing with photoshop and ACR a bit since it was my first picture in RAW ever so that's why it is dark. I used f/22 because of...

Well I just went through the same thing though my camera selection was slightly different. I ended up with the Canon XSi mainly based on price and how much I liked holding it. Out of all the...

I am glad you went and tried that out. I will say this: Ritz tends to be overpriced over some other places you can go. Check out some of the online stores others have recommened and see what would...

Hmmm well here is my shot:
it is my first picture with my XSi so I was experimenting and I thought it was a neat shot. Its a picture of the Comcast Skyscraper in Philadelphia. I like this picture...

Don't forget to go to a store and try out these camera's that you are looking at if you have a Ritz Camera they should have them all in stock or a Best buy or circuit city though the lock down clamps...

Yup with the D90 out the price of the D80 has dropped like a rock and its still a good camera. Just be aware of some of its missing features and see if that matters to you (For example no sensor...

I never really handled a Rebel before so I cannot comment on how they previously were built or felt. I can only offer my very subjective views on what I felt. But if I felt the XSi was such a...

I second that

Yes and I hope people will read this post and realize the futility of resisting this advice!


Yeah I know really! Actually while the Canon was certainly not the best in all areas (especially in...

Well just to let everyone know (If they cared) and to help anyone else who came across this thread and was going through the same thing: I chose......the Canon XSi. Why? its simple:

1) Monies:...

Thanks for all the help. I am going to get a 40D but I am going to wait until after the Photokina in case any more price drops occur and hopefully by then there would have been reviews to compare...

Good point!

Yeah I keep coming down between the Canon 40D and the Nikon D90 and the Pentax but its just so hard to make a decision.

Ok so I have a done of review readings from a dozen different sites on a dozen different camera's and I am not closer to being able to make a decision then I was before. However I did learn a ton of...
