Hmm... but topping up about rm500 and get a D3100, will D3100 beat LX-5 hands down in terms of every aspect? i dont even know how to play with the settings yet..

But as u said there`s no autofocus motor inside D3100, i gotta buy extra lens right? how much does it cost? i dont plan to invest really much $$ in lenses yet.. just wanna get the angle and skills right 1st.. with LX-5 i dont have to buy any extra accessories right?

Push features and specifications aside ---------------------------->

Now, use the camera and feel it. Which feels the best to you, or which you like best?

well i`m not sure man.. since all the votes go to d3100, maybe i should just take tat and start learning the fundamental from it blush.gif

Trust me man, do look around 4 other options. Don't always listen to recommendations. Go to the shop, don't listen to the sales person, and test the heck outta the camera that you are interested in. Dun be like some people, buy dy, not nice soon waste $$ go jump ship or change body.

Buy the one which you like most. Go Nikon Center/Canon or whatever and test the respective cameras.

sure man biggrin.gif thank u all for all the recommendation. if got question i`ll ask u guys again. sorry if i`ll will disturb u guys with PM tongue.gif

not much big difference but you will appreciate 24mm more when u take big group photos in a tight space.
