@princeXdevil:
Since you've got the budget for a Canon EOS 500D, go for it!
You can't compare a Canon G11 (P 'n' S) to a DSLR (500D).
If you want portability, then the G11 is the way to go!

i am looking for a 450d or 500d , can every 1 tell me where is cheaper?
which 1 is more match for beginner? that's my birthday gift i buy for my own ==""" so i do really hope can get that camera with the lowest price

450D is definitely cheaper. I do own it, and as a beginner, I do love it much. 500D is already out of your budget, but if you really want the video recording capability, top some budget, and you'll like it

@kfmong:
The 450D and 500D are essentially the same.
The price difference between the 500D and 450D will get you HD Video recording capability at 1080p @ 20 FPS (Too slow, 30 FPS is preferred).

tq so much for your opinion
than where can i buy those cameras for most recommended shop? because i just have 1 day to buy it

sorry for I really know nothing about the price for 450D. I bought it in Hong Kong during CNY for around RM2300, which is really incomparable to the street price here in Malaysia. Maybe you should ask some others out there.

@ventrilocks:
The answer would definitely be the Canon EOS 450D.
The Canon EOS 500D is out of your RM2.5k budget (it's about RM3.2k).
The Nikon D3000 (lower-range) shouldn't be compared to the 450D.
For comparison sake, the D3000 should be compared to the 1000D (same-range).
Just my 2 cents.

Currently I'm looking at Samsung PL70 which suits my needs and budget. Any comment from forumers regarding this model? Should I go for it?

Thanks.

@T_P_H_88:
Most (if not all) P 'n' S today have anti-shake/anti-vibration...
Please don't forget that with high ISO, comes a price... noise (grain)...
If there's video recording capability, there should be audio recording as well, not sure about HDMI connectivity though.
P 'n' S are all meant to be pocket-able and generally use SDHC (except Sony/Olympus).

thanx for the reply n help...
now my mind set on 450D...

No problem, glad to help.

@destroyer666:
Everybody is asking the question that you're asking.
The difference is added HD Video Recording 1080p at a very slow FPS (20 FPS).
A higher FPS would be better, I'm thinking 30 FPS. Other than that, not much of difference aside from 920,000 pixels on rear LCD of 500D whereas 230,000 pixels on rear LCD of 450D....
