550D can do 720p at 60fps wor.What are you talking about

550D is the best of the bunch lar It even does 1080p,720p is so OLD!

You should look at Nikon's menu system! The horror

end of september to october. the review is already out. http://dpreview.com/reviews/sonyslta55/

about rm2800 with 18-55 kit lens.

Hi all, will be going to Shanghai in 2 weeks so planning to get a camera please advise.

Type of camera/lens/accesories : Compact type (not DSLR)
Budget : Below RM1000
Your Location : Shah Alam
Preferable brand : Nikon or Sony
Type of photography u want to do : Night shots (at world expo ^^), Macro (flowers and food), Landscape, and the usual potraits.
Any specific models in mind? : Dont know which is better
Any specific features u want? : Best value of money. good zoom function, and maybe twilight function (for night shots).

add rm200 to your budget and get a sony tx-5.

any other recommendation? will take a look at the Tx-5.....

what makes you recommend that ^^

Meh.

Another 200 bucks can get you an IXUS 300HS which a f/2.0 aperture.Good for night shots

latest one is tx-9.

erm..besides a good sensor, its water resistant(few metres deep), shock resistance(can throw up down left right ) and damn bloody thin. about the size of blackberry. can fit into ur pocket nice nice.

how's the sensor's low light performance? sony using their latest exmor sensor for the tx-5. a mini mini MINI version from the sony a550 & a55.

Hmm so Tx-5 is somewhat like a DSLR? wow the price is really overbudget >.<

is it because of good sensor in low light so higher price?

sorry ... i was referring to 500D and D5000.... 550D is my last option.... coz tight budget here

aiyo..how to say..

sigh, cameras ... sorry if i offended camera enthusiasts, but there aint much skills in photography, especially when 1 good camera has all functions you need to take a good picture that comes with feel or whatever you call it

lol I am a newbie am not in position to say much but I can tell you you're totally wrong.. There's a lot more knowledges in photography than to shooting your own feel... For proof, you can just view albums of normal compacts camera photos taken by pros, they could appear to be awesome though taken by just a compact
