Dear all,

In regards of the above topic, I having a hard time of selecting the DLSR that I want to get.

Between Nikon D40, Pentax K10D, Canon EOS 350, Sony Alpha 100 and so on, I am tempted and indecisive of the brand and the capabilities.

I'm looking for the following:

1. Picture - crisp and sharp (color and light)
2. Should have shake-reduction as I've problem as I have slight shaky right hand
3. Good Auto-Focus Lens (not very good on the manual focus cameras)

My budget is Rm 2000 to max RM 3000.00

Please help me. rclxub.gif

i wonder why K10D was brought into the picture. smile.gif

since the ones mentioned were D40 and 350D, the right one to bring into comparison would be the K100D.

in fact, i thought of getting the K100D before. it comes with IS, uses AA battery IINM, uses SD and erm. what else? 6mp camera.

the reviews on K100D sez it's pretty good.

i mean look at the price tag, it comes with IS too. 6MP? more than enough actually, just that i already have 6MP prosumer and it's using CF card so i went 350D to get more MP and CF memory capable.

AFAIK even the D70 was 6mp, wasn't it?

you still can get 3rd party lens for it.
