which is beter for night photo...?
as they r more or less d same price...

guys, is sony a200 or a230 a good dslr for beginner? im thinking of selling lx3 and buy sony a200 or any other camera which the spec almost like the sony a200..
and is it worth it to sell lx3 and buy a200/a230?

I need help between Canon 1000d and Nikon d3000. So far I'm leaning towards the Canon because it's easier with the lenses, and it's chdk-able. I like the spot metering in D3000 but the lens could be the thing that sets me back. So is there another factor that I should go for one and not the other? Thanks!

Guys, wan to ask before go buy tmr, supposingly the student package:


BUt then just now i called, the guy from Prodigital Media says 40d with 1855 kit no more ady.
He says he can make up a package for me:

Hmm.. Want to ask, worth it or not ar?
But, 1855 more valuable than 50mm/1.8 isnt it?

Any specific features u want? : no specifics, just looking for a dslr to learn the skills and do not need to upgrade the body in a short time. 3 issues in my mind - 1. image stabilizer and 2. auto focus 3. affordability (in terms of lenses)

For a total beginner, I've been looking in the Canon 1000D / 450D / 500D.
Any big difference in 500D except for the video recording that warrants the extra 1k over 1000D? Which would be more suitable for someone new in the hobby? Is 500D going overboard for a first camera?

I totally got no idea abt cameras. All I want is to take decent pictures with the camera because I think I got shaky hands, which make most of the pictures I took blurry..=="

Type of camera/lens/accesories : DSLR camera (doesn't really know what that means, as long as it's digital)
Budget : RM1000
Your Location : KL
Preferable brand : Canon
Type of photography u want to do : Landscape & Portrait (travelling purpose)
Any specific models in mind? : none
Any specific features u want? : I think above 8mp is good enough for me, will be best if the battery is long lasting, easy to carry around & maybe water proof. Would love big LCD screens & beatiful designs...err..are these too much to ask for?

Your budget is kinda low to buy a DSLR. But you can get a decent compact for that. Normally DSLR cost 2-3K minimum.

Something like Canon IXUS 870 IS compact camera - maybe suits your needs?

Go for Lumix LX3. The IA mode really help a lot especially to ur family.

I think he confuse with compact and dslr. Thats y he put dunno what dslr mean.

RM1k can try Lumix FX48 or canon ixus 110

Any specific features u want? :

I need a camera which can take clear pictures cause my current camera produces bad quality photo . By the way , whats the difference between Point and Shoot cameras and Prosumer cameras ? Sorry , i'm not really good in this , so i'm actually surveying for cameras . =]

Prosumer is big in size with high zoom lens. 12x above. With ur budget u may try the Fuji S1500 prosumer camera.

Preferably other brand (Canon , nikon , Olympus , etc .. )

Type of photography u want to do : Portraits, occasions and such
Any specific models in mind? : G10, G11
Any specific features u want? :

Hey guys I need your opinion on which camera would be a better deal.

The G10 or G11?

G11: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_g11.asp
G10: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_g10.asp

I'm sure the price of the G11 would be relatively high when it is released so if there isn't much difference compared to the G10, should I get it instead?

I've heard people complaining about the G10 having a high mgpx count but small sensor and stuff but I don't really understand it as i'm only a newbie in all those technical terms.

Can you guys help me on the key points and differences about both the cameras and what I should be looking out for?

Thanks!

4sure.........G11 is better than G10.
G11 news feature all in the dpreview....
G1 Noise level is high than G11.....
I think....If you have already fix canon......I think G11 might good for you

Better in what sense leh?

Hopefully you're not telling me that new stuff confirm better than its predecessor.
