Main concern of taking photo of my puppies. They keep move around. I would much prefer shutter speed. In a fast shutter speed, which can get a better quality photo?

LOL!!!

not sure about the price, but can have a look at nikon p7000 and canon s95. both are not water resistant/drop resistant though.


nex 3! can bump high iso and get higher shutter.

Hello guys. I'm a novice when it comes to DSLR since I only use point and shoot camera all my life. So, I would like recommendations as well as suggestions in buying a DSLR camera.
Entry/ beginner level.


Type of camera/lens/accesories : DSLR camera
Budget : RM2500 and above
Your Location : KL
Preferable brand : Canon or Nikon
Type of photography u want to do : Candid picture, landscape, portrait
Any specific models in mind? : no (any canon or nikon brand)
Any specific features u want? : -

Hope you guys can help me.
Thanks.

hey there, im not so good either. but just wanna state my opinion. if ur budget is tight, im suggesting the nikon D3100, which is cheap. u can get it at rm1999 full set if im not wrong. or go with the sony SLT a55. its around rm2590 with kit lens, or if ur budget is flexible, do consider the canon 550D. its around rm2800 with kit lens. either 3 of these are entry level DSLR that offers great deal

p/s-if u're still unsure, google each one of those to see which one suits u best, or better yet, try them at shops

Oh I see, but then i scare the 60D's LCD easy spoilt, because it is Vari-angle LCD monitor
and so far, this is also new DSLR. any bad or good thing abt that?

nikon p7000 is consider as semi pro cam or compact cam? is canon s95 an upgraded version of s90?

Type of camera/lens/accessories : Entry level compact camera
Budget : RM1500
Preferable brand : Canon/Nikon/Lumix
Type of photography u want to do : I take whatever I see, mainly flowers
Any specific models in mind? : Nikon P7000
Any specific features u want? : Adjustable functions, etc aperture

I have an Olympus SP700, but I think it doesn't suit me as I always take near objects which aperture is important for me. But, its aperture is unchangeable.

just a compact lor. yes upgrade version. got bigger aperture too.

between nikon p7000, p100 & l110, which 1 will be the best choice?

Definitely the P7000 as it is a "high end PnS with manual controls" similar to that of a Canon G12.

But la, better to choose either a Canon S95 or Lumix LX5

thanks for the advice..will consider them

I have only tried the P100 and not much to compare. But I must say that this model is good enough for entry level. But don't expect results by using this camera since they have their own limitation as well.

can la. from J One shop in Amcorp and a few links in the garage sale forum.

if ur budget is tight, with all the models u state there, i think ur best bet wud be to go for the D3100. its packed with new features as well.

If you do not mind, Sony A33 performs quite well although you need 2 add another 2-- to your budget.

Thanks but I think prefer Nikon/Canon. Don't know why but just do.

Thanks. Any extras to recommend if I am getting the camera? What flash is good if I am mainly taking pics of people/baby. Thx again

you should know that D3100 has no AF motor at its body.. Therefore, lens need to have AF or you need MF all the way

i would recommend the 50mm 1.8 lens, which is a cheap lens, but to me is a very wonderful lens. and about flashes, me myself im using a nissin 622. a third party lens. and i dont know much about nikon flashes. im very sorry but as for me, the nissin still works like a charm
