QUOTE(zstan @ Oct 24 2010, 12:22 AM) lol. i'd take the canon 550D if i were you. much, much better specs. i have a 450D i know how sucky it is compared to 550D. oopsssssss. no offense 450D users =X the kit lens is one of the best among the 3 big brands..and i'd suggest you save some money to get the VC version of the 1750.. and although the siggy is better in quality..how sure are you that you would like a prime? QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Oct 24 2010, 12:41 AM) In Kai's case... both are up-to-date bodies. Thanks for the advice.In your case... I'm with zstan on this, I'd still reckon the 550D and use the 18-55 IS (though $300 is a lil expensive). Practice with the 18-55 IS first... you'd still be able to get more subject isolation and better low light capability than your current LX3. ps: I just bought the 18-135mm today and if I can turn back time and to do everything all over again.. I would get the 18-135 kit.. since a jack-of-all-trade lens always have a place in the dry box. Now I dunno what to do with all the other lens I don't use anymore. It still puzzles me though,body vs lens thingy but in the end of the day, i guess i'll be "happier" if i end up with the 550D+1855 combo  |

you cannot compare like that la. unless you using the same settings and same lens to shoot the same subject.
however i do agree that D90 has a better built, feels more 'pro' than the 550D, with the inclusion of the top LCD screen. and yes, d90 has more of those 'shortcut functions'. higher fps also if i am not mistaken.  but saying that d90 is better than 550D because d90 photo quality better without any solid facts....i cannot accept la.  |
