are they much cheaper? how much are they? and are the lenses expensive too?

nex5 for both lenses are about 3K. their new lense is 2K almost a brand new cam :S

Where is Aver Avard? HOw about other friends here, any nice shop in KL selling nice price with nice freebies?

I was tempted by the price of 60D

lol this is called self poison. very hard to cure wan ! haha

Type of camera/lens/accesories : Compact vs DSLR camera
Budget : RM1500 - RM2000 +
Your Location : KL
Preferable brand : Canon (open to other brands for compact)
Type of photography u want to do : various
Any specific models in mind? : Canon EOS 450D / Canon S90 (or S95) / Lumix LX3 (or LX5)
So my main dilemma here.. is whether to go for a semi-pro compact, or a DSLR. Undoubtedly DSLR's produce photos with better quality. But i've heard people who regret after purchasing one, saying they wished they had a compact to use instead of lugging the dslr around. Should this be a concern? Or are there any other downsides to DSLR's that you guys would wanna add?

I'm aiming for the older entry-level DSLR's actually, to fit my budget. Pretty set on Canon for DSLR, heh ;p

If i were to go for a compact, any other suggestions other than S90 or LX3? Would love to hear your opinions. I've been reading reviews and all, but it'd be helpful to know anything extra

Thanks guys (:

Type of camera/lens/accesories : DSLR camera

Your Location : KL
Preferable brand : Canon or Nikon
Type of photography u want to do : more to Landscape and macro, sometimes Portrait
Any specific models in mind? : D3100, 550D and A33
Any specific features u want? : wanna something that produce good quality image without having to edit it to much. as i jump ship from Olympus E520.wanna try nikon or canon that suit my budget.

good photos are mostly depending on your skill u cant always depend 100% on the camera. Even phone camera can take amazing photos but up to a certain extend only

if give to you also no use.. this is not a constructive comment.. you could ask them buy rm300 camera instead
for @sempronic - create a table of the threa camera you want side by side, list out its spec, cons and pros that you know...

after that go to the shop and try each one of them.. find which one suits your hand the best... which one have the button/menu placement that you like.. and go buy it

i think there's no entry level dSLR with video mode is within ur budget there (sifus correct me if im wrong)

i wouldnt recommend a m43 bcuz its pricey too..

im suggesting the canon S95 or the Lumix LX5..its within ur budget,easy to carry around,and i read the reviews of the canon,its good under low light conditions..

but if u want a dSLR that's with video mode n not to pricey,do consider the Nikon D3100..its around RM1900..(lari ur budget abit  )

hope this helps 

jz wan to know nikon D5000 and sony nex-5k which 1 is better??
tq

Should i go for D90 rather than D3100? which one better actually? i guess D90 right? was it all depend on the sensor quality to determine good dslr? 

Yeah, so i must think properly. I scare i just "3 mins warming"... 

Haha, same to my friend lo. He buy Lx3, then sooner buy D90, lol..

In Kai's case... both are up-to-date bodies.

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.
