If you're looking at image quality, there's no doubt the DSLR wins hands down.
It has a bigger sensor and lower pixel density(3.8 MP/cm² vs 24 MP/cm²) to give you cleaner shots.
Sure, the LX3's image quality might be on par with the A350's image quality when the LX3's ISO settings are low, but once you start bumping up the ISO, the LX3 struggles with noise.
But there's no denying that the LX3 performs superbly and is one of the top performers in its class, the high-end compacts.

40D anytime. It's intermediate DSLR compared to entry level DSLR D80

I see.. thanks for the answer, one more Q.. if buying A350, the twin lens that sony is offered, isit worth? or shall i just take the single lens package, then get a better lens on the future days?

twin lens kit is worth if u're not going to upgrade lately..

but for me, i would suggest u to get a better lens iin future
Coz the twin lens kit not as good as those first class grade lens =p

haha, thanks for the suggestion.. then i will go for single lens too.. future have money only start play lens..

Yup, Sony DSLRs can only take Sony Alpha/KM lenses.

Sonylens/minolta/sigma/tamron/tokina (nt sure bout tokina)

Guys,

I am so confused. After doing so much research and reading so many reviews I have narrowed down

Fuji f100fd

Canon A2000is

Which is better. Looking at sample pics, the colour of canon seems more vibrant. Please please someone help me. So tired of reading reviews.

Thanks

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the help. Will be getting the Canon A2000IS. Was wondering if now is a good time to buy or should I wait? Will only be needing it in a month or two. Thanks a lot for the help.

I'm very new to dslr cameras and have this growing urge of interest to learn. Was wondering which model should I start with?
Was also wondering if one could suggest me one lens to buy together with the camera.

Entirely up to you - camera prices don't fluctuate much unless there is a new model for that category of camera released.

Canon 1000D, sell off kit lens, bump up budget a bit more and get the 18-200mm (if you're looking for an all-rounder lens)

If not, please, state what you're going to use the camera for mostly.

I'd recommend the Canon EOS 1000D/Nikon D60 over these two models, because Sony isn't THAT popular and established in Malaysia yet, while Pentax... is totally unpopular, I have never encountered a shop selling it before. Correct me if I'm wrong, but IMHO settling for a well-known brand would be advisable.

400D is outdated. 450D is a minor upgrade over the 1000D and if you don't need these minor differences settle for the 1000D. What's more is that you get to save RM750+- from buying the 1000D which can be used to fund for a flash/lens

I'd recommend you to start off with a Canon EOS-1000D or a Nikon D60 first. Both are equal in terms of specs, lenses, etc. You'll be well off with either.

As mentioned in previous reply, 450D is a minor upgrade over the 1000D so if you can live without these minor differences go for the 1000D and you can save around RM750+-.

I'm not really informed about the PnS category but I've heard some good reviews of the Samsung and Olympus, so why not you all try this two models out and see which one you like most?
