Okay, here's the deal.
Currently I own a Canon XS DSLR and a Panasonic TM15 Camcorder.
I have no complaints with the Canon; it takes great images.
However, the camcorder's low light performance...

Thanks for the reply, I'll probably go with the XSi.

I've seen some telephoto USM lenses on keh.com for dirt cheap. This is one of the ones I was looking at. It would work with the XSi, correct?

I sold my Nikon D40 because I was outgrowing the 3 point AF, lack of DOF preview, and most of all, the fact I had to use AF-S lenses to autofocus.

Now I'm looking at the Canon XS with the 18-55 IS...

I've used Adorama. They're good.

The Panasonic TZ4 and TZ5 are both good cameras, but I think a Sony H10 or Canon SX110 would be better choices. The image quality looks better on both of these than the Panasonics. Check out this...

I looked up the sensor swabs-found a kit that includes the type 2 swabs (which will work with D40), pec-pads, 1 e-wipe packet, and Eclipse. However, the company that makes all this says you can't use...

that mirror is what I'm referring to- I know it doesn't affect picture quality, but it does bug me while I'm framing the shot.
Are you sure that using a cloth to clean it would be allright? I had...

I just found out I have dust on the mirror too. I tried the Giottos, didn't work.

While I have a Nikon D40 and love it, I'll have to give it to Canon in this case.
For under $500, the XS simply provides better value than the D60, considering the live view and other features. ...

after thinking it over, I think I might go for a smaller compact with manual controls, like the a590. I got to thinking how horrible it would be to not be able to adjust shutter and aperture manually.

be aware that the A1000 is, while a good camera, does not have manual controls. The panasonic lz8 is also a decent camera, but it's not the best choice for indoor shots, since it has a lot of noise...

I have a Nikon D40, which is a great camera, but I need something a bit more portable to carry in my pocket.

Budget

* What budget have you allocated for buying this camera? Please be as...

I got the Nikon d40 about 6 months ago. It's an amazing camera. However, I have noticed dust in the photos recently, and if I take off the lens, I can see dust on the mirror and sensor.
What is the...

I bought a Nikon D40 last Saturday. It should ship today.:)

I just bought a Nikon D40. It should ship today.
Does anyone know of any online tutorials or tips for a D40? I would like to be able to get the most out of my camera.

I have used both Macs and PCs for years. I would DEFINITELY go with the Mac.
1, you can run Windows if you have too. 2, Macs almost never get viruses. Windows get tons. 3, Macs don't freeze nearly...

I finally have the money for a DSLR. ($450). I can get the Canon XT for that amount new. However, since the XTi has been replaced by the XSi, how soon do you think the price will go down? Will it go...

Okay, so I'm thinking about buying a Canon XT or XTi. I need a good CompactFlash card for it. I am looking for something that is fast, although not too expensive. I want at least 1GB. Which are...

I realize my budget is low.

I may be able to save up more later and buy another lens.

A film SLR would not really be very good for me. I need to be able to edit my images on the computer.

I am looking for an entry level DSLR. I will mostly be shooting landscapes, indoor shots of people, and some action. I possibly will be shooting some weddings and concerts with it too. Right now I'm...

Of those three, I would recommend either the A720 IS or A650 IS.
I would NOT recommend the SX100 IS. I owned it, and I had to take it back.
The autofocus near the telephoto end is VERY slow and...

I owned a Canon A720 IS.
The flash recharge time was a little slow-there were a few times I missed shots.
The A570 IS is probably very similar in that regard.
From comparisons on...

The Canon XTi/400d has been replaced by the XSi/450d. I believe it's coming out in March or April.

If you don't want to wait, I would suggest the Nikon D80 over the XTi. The build quality is much...

There aren't very many small long zoom cameras. I think Nikon has a S10 (but I don't think it has image stabilization, which I think it imperative for a long zoom camera).

I owned the SX100 IS. It...

Around Christmas I bought a Canon A720 IS. There was dust in the viewfinder. I had to send it back.
I bought a Canon SX100 IS. The AF practically did not work in low light. I had to send it back.
