Type of photography u want to do : Landscape and Portrait
Any specific models in mind? : 550D, 600D, 60D, (ANy Recommendation on Nikon?)

i think your best bet below 4k would be the 60d. as im using one now, i totally recommend it. i think with 4k you can get a 60d + 18-135mm kit.

Hi everyone, newbie here. Wish to get some advice from you guys...

I'm not sure whether I should get myself a 550D or 60D. Since the price of the 550D is lower, so i would have budget to buy a better lens.

Some said lens is actually more important than the body. Is this true?

I saw a lot of 550D users upgraded to 50D or 60D in a very short period. So I wonder is it not worth buying the 550D.

Thanks in advance for the reply

Strict 3000?

Can get a 600D/550D or Sony A580 with that range.

In terms of Iso, video performance and etc, I think D90 is on the losing side, due to the aging body, but otherwise, I view D90 as a solid camera still.

Nex5? Nex 7 already around 4k, no need to bother since your budget is way below 4k.

But if want viewfinder, need to get Nex5n.

Nikon D7000? Sony A580?

Lol, best bet is 60D? In what sense?

With 4k, I think I can get A580 + Tamron 17-50 f2,8 liao lo.. Or maybe can get other things with the extra $$

Lens > Body is true, to a certain extend.

If I were you, I did get something else, rather than something I might regret later.

Choices are, 550d or 60d, if there is sufficient cash for both, I did 60D than 550D.

I checked out this 2, priced exactly the same at RM799. I'm leaning towards the Sony cause it's more practical, low-light shooting etc.

What do you guys think? Anything better for the same price?
