Hahaha<BR/><BR/>jayce and fird: Yes, I take that into consideration too. I heard that Sony is going to open a lens factory to mass produce lenses so that the consumers get to buy cheaper lenses. It might not be true, and if I want to stay on a safer side, I'll go for Canon/Nikon.<BR/><BR/>the both of us: No doubt that Canon is an old player in this field and my confidence with them is stronger, but the features from Sony dSLR is quite tempting for its price :D<BR/><BR/>izzat: Seriously, you are the first to tell that 450D is worse than 400D, from all the reviews I've read, it's the other way round, haha... And 400D with kitlens is around RM2k currently ;)<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'll try the models I can get my hands on before deciding it :P<BR/><BR/>moo_t: Ken Rockwell is a bit bias more to Nikon, and I didn't say that, the forum members in dpreview did after I was browsing through the forum for the past few weeks.<BR/><BR/>anonymous: Don't worry, I'll play with some of the models when I visit the camera shop before deciding on the one that I'm comfortable with.<BR/><BR/>I've faced limitations with my PnS, hence the need to get a dSLR. And the models I've listed fits into my budget, anything more expensive than that, I have to cover my eyes eventhough it's one of the good dSLR around, eg: d80 :(<BR/><BR/>fird: But the equipments in front of the eyes play an important role too, that's the reason why people choose dSLR over PnS despite the huge price gap between them. That's also why some ppl have the need to get a 1Ds Mark III rather than just using 400D. Don't you think so? :Phaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05339090877971192603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145156.post-75765761641211069542008-04-14T16:09:00.000+08:002008-04-14T16:09:00.000+08:00I second that.

One can read all the wonders of 1 camera but still get crappy results. <BR/><BR/>One should also determine what type of shots that is going to be shot with the equipment. If you are going to be buying to take holiday shots, its better off getting compacts as they are inexpensive, lighter and hassle free.<BR/><BR/>Yes, looking into the future will be an advantage, but do not let the variety of lenses fool ya. There's different grades of lenses, thus differ in prices. Go within your budget and do not be influenced by those around you as you may regret your purchase.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145156.post-89990929778577172452008-04-14T12:40:00.000+08:002008-04-14T12:40:00.000+08:00Apparently, you didn't do much research on DSLR.

Note: not A350.<BR/><BR/>SONY A350/A300/A200 - Sony is new comer in this dSLR industry but their technology in this image processing and photography already used in most of dSLR camera and high quality video camera. Sony offered a damn cheap dSLR to those who wanna own a dSLR. With their build-in SuperSteadyShot in body,make it possible for to use the lens wif no stabilisation. Compare to C n N, which all their camera body doesn't have any build-in stabilisation, to get a shake-free photos need you to attach a lens with image stabilisation and it was damn expensive. With 2.5k u can get a SONY A200 with dual kit lens or u can get it even cheaper. Nice right?<BR/><BR/>My opinion is, find a right camera that depends on ur need. Don't buy it because everyone use it. I think SONY offer a great dSLR here which best price and their lens also affordable. If me, i will go to SONY instead of C n N. Otherwise i got a lot if money to afford their lens.<BR/><BR/>More info about dSLR can be found <A HREF="http://photomalaysia.com/" REL="nofollow">here</A>. There are lots of guide and review about latest dSLR. You can ask them for any question.<BR/><BR/>just my 50 cents :P<BR/><BR/>p/s: nway, still can't afford yet a SONY dSLR. Need more money to spend. hehehe. ^_^Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145156.post-75493437806824938642008-04-14T10:47:00.000+08:002008-04-14T10:47:00.000+08:00hey dude, read this article thru nuffnang.

This is because the body will always get obsolete over time, and the only thing usually stays for a long while is the lens.<BR/><BR/>Basically - pick a system that have the lenses that you wanted, and then stick with it. If you always compare features by features, there will be neverending battle. Switching system lateron will be expensive.Firdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02355761333220628734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145156.post-9759887821067961362008-04-14T10:40:00.000+08:002008-04-14T10:40:00.000+08:00You can't go wrong with both of them.

Then there's DIGIC 3 :D better processing and of course you got a wider range of lenses.<BR/><BR/>For Sony, the alpha 350 is good coz 14megapixels. Good for crop. The LCD is also very yummy. Much better than the 450D's. However, you've gotta go find minolta lenses coz sony lenses are too darn expensive.<BR/><BR/>So...for me...Go Canon :D Can share lens with tele buggers like me :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
