Type of camera : M4/3 Camera
Budget: Below 2k
Your Location: KL
Preferable brand : Olympus, Nikon , Panasonic, Canon
Type of photography u want to do : Macro details, Potrait and all around for newbies
Any specific models in mind? : Olympus EPM1 - EPL3, Nikon J1, GF3, LX5
Any specific features u want? : Fast auto focus, Variety choice of lens, Reliable, and of course AS CHEAP AS POSSIBLE tongue.gif

I'm newbie in photography.. I like DSLR but its bulky and decide to pick M4/3 cuz can get same picture quality in compact size.. Interested in taking a snapshot of Gunpla's, Potrait photography, Landscape, Streets, candid snapshot.. For Nikon J1 some of my friend said it was not worth it cuz the quality is almost like EPM1 that cost 400bucks cheaper.. read it on the internet got problem on J1 battery life.. I've tried GF2 and quit attracted to the design tongue.gif Some said for stable body can choose Olympus but for fast AF can go for Nikon.. I like fast autofocus cuz i'm "Happy Trigger" type and like to snap a candid.. Any suggestion for below 2k budget Compact Digital Camera..

About 2k i guess. but if you are looking for fast Autofocus your only option is DSLR unless you are willing to invest in fast lenses.

The lens cant be change with other type if let say i want to use for macro purpose can i change to macro lens? or its fix Bright F1.8 Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens?
