Which one is better between this two package?

1. Canon EOS450D with kitlens + Original grip BG-E5 + extra phottix battery
(Package includes: battery, charger, 2GB SD card , cables.)

2. Nikon D5000 with kitlens + Box, manual, warranty card, body cap,1 original battery, 1 Phottix battery, original charger,Sandisk 4GB SD card.
easy to say, everything in the box except usb cable.
Which one more value to get? Or any USED set for introduce? Budget between 2K.

have you tried those 2 cameras before?

go and get a hands on approach. dun buy a camera by looking what 'packages' those sellers are offering. see which feels more nicer and comfortable in your hands before you buy.

what's the difference between dslr and m43 camera?don't know much about camera lar
*
well, for starters, the size of sensor is different.

m43 has smaller sensors compared to DSLR.

however the NEX-3 has the same sensor size with a DSLR.

having said that, this makes m43 cameras smaller and easier to carry than your DSLR. what makes NEX-3 special is that it has the same body size as the m43(if not smaller) but the sensor of a DSLR.

i won't talk about picture quality as it is quite subjective. both can take beautiful pictures if you ask me.


first question you need to ask is, why am i buying this camera for?

will i bring it out everyday to shoot? do i mind the weight? or do i want something small but powerful (NEX-3 again tongue.gif ).

Hi, I'm thinking to get a dslr camera..Main purpose is to take pics of koi fishes and planted tanks....when i use normal digital camera to take the pics..the quality is very bad and blurr plus there is reflections of water in the pond...any suggestion which dslr camera to get???plan to get 1 by this week budget from 2k-2.5k...

any DSLR will do.

just remember to get a polariser to reduce the reflections when you are taking the pictures.

but of course i would recommend sony a550. tongue.gif

i was wondering which camera to go for whether D90 or D5000 to shoot portraits indoor mainly for face .

did some research and some said heavy camera is better for shooting model. than another group says lighter camera is better to carry in the studio if not using tripod.

so which is witch?
*
both can do a good job.

i'd suggest u buy the D5000, and invest in better studio lighting equipment.

hello geeks, sorry but i cant help myself to ask a few questions;

If i were to choose between Nik D90 or Can 550D( this is around my budget and my 2nd slr, my 1st slr was totally diff system, sold off)
In the long term which is better?
A lot of review said D90 is superior in imaging while 550D only win in the HD video area.
The problem for me is long term: wide lens selection, cheaper lens selection, and upgrading to better body.
My current favors is tilting towards the D90, HOWEVER (there is always however, damn!) D90 is an old system 3years already, what if there is replacement when im getting it, and nikon lens selection seems to be a bit short compare to canon and canon have cheaper lens i think

Correct me if im wrong and please help me in my confusing state.
Many thanks before hand.

wan cheaper lens then get sony a550 lor..

u dun need have VC for every lens as there's already built in image stabilisation..saves a lot of money in long term...
