"It all depends on exactly what you are looking for, but my personal recomendation would be to wait for the Sony NEX-7 to come out. It is looking to debut at around $850(US) in the very near future. Rumors are circulating that it will be…"

Hey everyone! I'm looking at buying my first SLR camera and I've got no idea which camera would be best for me! I don't want to get something like the Nikon D3100, although it's nice and cheap…Continue

Danny replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"Hi Loz,
I had the same 'dilemma' and maybe my experience can help you a little bit. I started shooting (about a year ago) with the Nikon D3000. As you stated correctly, and what happened to me, you will…"
Fred replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"On AF lenses, the focusing is driven by the camera's motor. This means on budget cameras, like D50, these lenses will focus slower. AF-S lenses have focusing motor on them, so they will focus faster. DX means the lens is designed for…"
Vernan Jagunap replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"I believe AFS lenses are better than AF lenses. I would choose to buy it if I can afford it. There should be some reason why they are more expensive. However, as I time goes I feel the need of a wider aperture lens and the prices of AFS lenses are…"
Greg maklae replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"Just saw an ad for the D7000, and it had the same 18-105 lens on it as I have on my D5000. The D90 also came standard with this lens. It appears even though these camera bodies have the built in AF motor, Nikon seems to think the motor in the lens…"
Vernan Jagunap replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"I am a Nikon shooter. I am using a D5000.
One of the things that I wish I have is the AF motor of the body. The D5000 does not have an AF motor on the body, the same with D3000, D3100, and D5100...these models use AFS lenses, meaning the AF…"
"+1 for Gregg's comment, I bought a secondhand Canon 450d with a kit lens 18 months ago (Rebel in the U.S. I think) and it has been a great way in. I then gradually bought lenses, but made sure they were compatible with the next step up as they…"
Greg maklae replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"Top get more bang for your buck, I would look for remanufactured equipment from places like Adoroma or B&H. I got a D5000 and the 18-105 mm lens from adorama for less than the cost of the camera alone. Both were in perfect condition and came…"
Fred replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"The most important rule when selecting a camera is does it feel comfortable in your hands. Go to a retailer and try them out.
The most important part to any DSLR is the lens, they cost money. So Once you have selected your camera you will be…"
SRT30D replied to Loz wit's discussion First SLR Camera"Hi, Loz.. Welcome to the Photography Dilemma.
First off, no matter what camera you buy today, it will probably be obsolete or 'old technology' in two years, due to the pace at which the digital world is growing. Still, all is not…"
