I prefer some basic which is no need to change lens, so that I can learn toward more before I move to the next level. Budget would be start from 1.5k and 2.5k range.

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Oct 12 2013, 12:26 AM) Hey man, nice to see you here Actually I really went to Sony shop today and look for RX100 but the boss over there said RX100 no longer sell, only RX100 v2, then the boss recommend me buy so len interchangeable one for more future proof. lol Eh? I thought you were looking for cameras that are not-lens interchangeable? Yeah, the D3100/3200/5100/5200 are entry level cameras, good for beginners since the interfaces are made in such a way that they are easier to understand what are the different between "Compact Interchangeable-Lens Cameras" and "Digital SLRs"?

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Oct 12 2013, 02:50 AM) oh man, that was nightmare for me. it was like my first time bought my desktop/laptop 5years ago. QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Oct 12 2013, 10:37 AM) Mirrorless cameras, as the name suggest, does not have a mirror which reflects what the lens "see" and showing it to the user through an optical viewfinder. Because of that, they can be designed and built in a much smaller profile unlike DSLRs. With that, you get a lot more portability at a minor expense in terms of ergonomics and comfort, a compensation many are willing to make Hmm... I think stick with Nikon since here Nikon community more than Canon, easier to ask for help in the future.So I guess it all depends on you, if you like to keep things simple and light when you go out, then its definitely a mirrorless camera for you. Go for the ones with larger sensors like the NEX series for better performance If you are looking for a beginner level DSLR, then its usually: Nikon D3200/D5100, Canon 600D/650D, Sony a58 to consider I guess Sony Nex series is small compact len interchangeable type, while the below the Nikon model I talking about is normal DSLR(entry type), right? So few question in my mind, D3100/3200/5100/5200, by looking at the number of the model, I assume each of them are upgraded version according to their number, right? what are the main differents between D3100/3200 to the D5100/5200. So is the price almost the same? Ps. what is the mean of Prime lens? This post has been edited by NightFelix: Oct 12 2013, 12:10 PM |

QUOTE(Agito666 @ Oct 12 2013, 12:15 PM) prime lens: ah I see.. if is fix focal lens, then would it be hard that you can't zoom in or out to snap, so we have to take our camera to walk closer or further to snap our target?fix focal lens, usually comes with big aperture well the lens trade off flexible focal/zoom range but will gain the bigger aperture. and very light too. unless your are talking about 24-70 f/2.8, 70-200 f/2.8 Another thing I not quite understand between ISO and Aperture ( I read the guide from The Verge here) ISO is light absorb into the sensors, so the aperture means??

QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Oct 12 2013, 02:54 PM) Alright, so to cut it short, since I'm tight on budget, I think stick to D3200 comparing to D5200. I Google around I found that most of them compare D3200 to the Canon 600D, so this question would be just like Asus vs Lenovo brand. One thing makes me choose D3200 is, I heard you guys said that, there is a Beginner mode? so is there a similar feature in 600D too?So, another question is, instead of picking the right DSLR(body), I should learn more how to shoot good photo and invest on good lens, right? Ps. What other extra accessories I should buy for beginner? extra battery? what lens I should pick for beginner? normally seller free memory card & bag or not? what is the common price selling now for the D3200 and 600D?

QUOTE(5p3ak @ Oct 12 2013, 05:00 PM) You need to try out, don't just simply believe, need to investigate. But the D3200 and the others should be come with 18-55mm, so I buy separately?Yes good lens. 24-70 U know if add battery grip it's gonna be heavier. Go try take FF camera with heavy lens like 2470 and battery grip...hand can patah I tell u QUOTE(PF T.J. @ Oct 12 2013, 05:48 PM) I just went to my nearest local Court to test those entry-level DSLR. I tested the Nikon D3100 & D3200 and the Canon 600D & 650D. The Nikon D3100 & D3200 griping still okay but I prefer Canon 600D & 650D griping and the button area on the DSLR.So if comparing to both Nikon & Canon. I prefer Canon griping and the button layout more over the Nikon. But the price Nikon cheaper than Canon. The most attractive part is the Nikon D3100 RM1399. OMG. So cheap comparing to others. I think most of the kit lens that come along with the body is 18-55mm is it? QUOTE(gunzerdude @ Oct 12 2013, 08:56 PM) Yeah, I saw the Nikon D3100 price RM1399 so attractive for basic entry level DSLR.This post has been edited by NightFelix: Oct 12 2013, 10:53 PM |

QUOTE(little ice @ Oct 12 2013, 11:04 PM) Aww...Now I shorten the pick list of either pick below: 1) Nikon D3100 (because of cheap selling price now due to tight budget, someone I'm beginner to learn DSLR) 2) Nikon D3200 (slightly better than D3100 and a lot of positive review among 3 here but I still affordable to top-up) 3) Canon 600D (I like the way holding it and the physical button layout, and I have more friend using Canon brand DSLR, since I can borrow lens or advice from them) So headache...
