Why do you want to get a second hand when you can get a Sony a200 at that price? You just need to top up RM100 and walla, there you go. Anyway, if you do have a RM2k budget, you will have more choices, like the 1000D or the D60/D80... Canon 50D, 40D, Nikon D90, or maybe a D300 You should test the D90 + 50D out, both are equally good, so it's all up to your personal decisions. Have a look at their official site and specifications if you still can't make a decision. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos50d/ Have a look at the comparison chart. Good luck finding your camera. =) thanks! i made up my mind. will go for nikon D90. new camera for the new year!!

Ok, that's all I can get. =/ other than that both cameras are really identical in terms of performance. Ok, sure, no problems With RM4k you could get yourself a few. Mainly: Canon EOS-40D (used, most probably) Canon EOS-50D (used) Canon EOS-450D (new set) Nikon D90 (new set) I'm not sure of other brands but these two are quite a good choice. I think you should Google and read some reviews on these few first. Olympus possesses the longest zoom range, if I'm not wrong. 20x. You can try to read some reviews about it. Frankly, most of the decision-making counts on the pros and cons of each and every camera. In my opinion I think the G10 and the P6000 loses out slightly to the Panasonics, while I have no idea about the Fujifilm... http://www.dpreview.com/news/0807/08072102panasoniclx3.asp http://www.dpreview.com/news/0807/08072104panasonicfz28.asp Have a look at both. =) and compare the specs. If you still can't find your choice, then look for pictures taken by the LX3 and the FZ28. That'll enlighten you on how well the camera works in certain environments. Good luck trying to find a good deal then. =) If I'm not wrong, you could try to scout deals from Fotokem or any photo shop out there - go in, ask the price, and say 'Ok, thanks, I'll consider the price and if I do want to buy it, I'll come back'. thanks man. will do that over the weekend.
