Type of camera/lens/accesories : DSLR with lens.
Budget: rm2k
Your Location: JB, KL.
Preferable brand : Canon, Nikon, but if there are other good alternatives then I don't mind other brands.
Type of photography u want to do : Normal daily stuff. Nothing too professional. Plan on using the camera while we travel, etc.
Any specific models in mind? : D3100 for now.
Any specific features u want? : Me and my girl are total beginners. We've only used those cheap point and shoot cameras before but we're planning on learning more about photography. I've done a little bit of research and it seems like D3100 is probably our best bet at the moment. Seems to have good features and easy to use and good for us beginners. However I've also read reviews for Canon 550D and it seems like a much better camera for not much more.
Being total beginners we'd like some advice here. Is Canon 550D worth the extra money over the D3100? I don't want to spend about 2k on D3100 and 5 months later wish I would have spent a little more on the 550D. Is it possible for us to 'outgrow' the D3100 easily? We don't mind spending a little more for 550D if it's worth it.
Thank you very much for any advice.
550D is technically better as you need not to worry bout the type of lens that you can use in future.. Sony have A33 which is around the same price at ur budget. Nikon has D3100.

I'm kinda a beginner here and want to start on photography. Want to learn how to take good pictures (moving objects with blur background, up close shoot, etc..) and maybe take some video recording. Been looking around and i think the three models above are closest to what i want...but dunno which to take as i dun really understand the differences betweem those models..
Thanks for advise and recommendations.
550D is your best bet.

I wanna get my 1st DSLR Camera. But i dunt know which one to choose.
In my mind, for my budget, i can get either Nikon d3100 or Canon d1100.
But i dunt sure which one is better? Can i have some advices from yours?
Erm, Sony A33 would prove better compared to Canon 1100D actually. D3100 has no AF motor, causing problem for lens compatibility in future.
