i don't think Nikon manufactured CCD. in fact, Nikon older DSLR D2, D200, D70 is using CCD from Sony.

well, colour sucks or not, it's too subjective. Nikon is better than Canon, I said.

i think this thread is for helping out newbies on camera, not brand war

I been checking price for Panasonic Lumix FZ28 today in sg wang and low yat. Priced range RM 1200 - 1400.
I want know what things to check when to buy the camera , any trick by seller?
How to check all accessories are original??

Now you want a camera or a lens? If camera, it's fairly impossible to get a decent zoom lens and a body with your budget.

If lens though, I recommend you to get the 70-200mm f/4L IS USM. By far, it's the cheapest L lens.. and the PQ is very good too eventhough it's f/4.

Sellers usually won't trick you - you can bring them to court if they do so, if I'm not wrong.

Good sellers will let you play around with the camera, see what you can do with it, check every tiny detail, etc. Better sellers will even give you some freebies.

Don't worry la, this isn't like the handphone industry where things are easily duplicated. Cameras are delicate, precision equipments - there's no easy way and cheap way to make one.

I don't think so. If you want you can get the 60mm Compact Macro. I'm not that into macro photography, so I'm not sure about the macro models available.

Bigger pixels doesn't mean better quality. The Canon is still a better performer above the Samsung.

If you want, you can accept the dealer's recommendation, or look for another shop that will give you freebies for the Canon, because this particular dealer seems to be wanting to sell out his Samsung stocks. He most probably won't give you any freebies because you bought the Canon over the Samsung.

Take the EOS-1000D or the D60. Both are the best performers of the entry-level range.

You can get the D40, but it's quite old already...

With your budget I think you can get a used 1000D/D60, or get a new a200.

1000D, D60. See which one is right for you and then make the choice.

'Longer'? What are you trying to tell us here?

Hmm, I think he means that sony's kit lens is around 24-70 (i dunno lar the exact range) and that the other brands are standard 18-55? Izit?
