Sorry to bump in...
I read @350 is less better cause more nosier.
So my friend suggest @300.
I dont really need Live View, so is @200 = @300 (in terms of everything else other than Live View)
I plan to get the body + Sony 18-250mm f3.5-6.3
Can someone quickly summarize the difference of @200 vs @300 (other than the Live View)?

Buying things and comparing things is always not easy  I'm stuck between Sony @300 + Sony 18-250mm = around RM4k and Nikon D90 + Kit lens = around RM4k too If the body, Sony @300 vs Nikon D90, I think D90 wins based on reviews But @300 wins in terms of price. For the same price of D90, I can get Sony 18-250mm too So is like comparing, a lower end camera with better zoom lens and a higher end camera with normal zoom lens My budget is around RM5k... Sleepless night thinking...

QUOTE(dingenius3 @ Dec 14 2008, 09:37 AM) my noob-ish comment: nikon lens for 18-200 = RM2.5k++ if u haf budget for 5k... get A700!! I was at the Curve, they said A700 no more stock Budget of RM5k should include extra battery, bag and screen protector. Ya I know D90 with 18-200mm is off budget, so that is why I'll start D90 with kit lens first QUOTE(calvin_gsc @ Dec 14 2008, 09:38 AM) It sure is a hard decision. have you tried both cameras in your hands? I have not tried D90 yet, but it was highly recommended by my friend. I plan to go try it out today. Hope can find demo unit at MidValley This post has been edited by auhckw: Dec 14 2008, 09:54 AM

QUOTE(dingenius3 @ Dec 14 2008, 10:00 AM) haf fun hunting~ just reminding u.. u might need UV filter to protect ur lenses.. prices vary from brand.. i'm using Hoya.. i'm going to suggest u to get the A300 + twin kit lens + UV + CPL + Vertical Grip + 1 extra batt + sturdy tripod... wont cost u more than 5k.. since u targeting a travel lens 18-250... which is still in my wishlist to have... cant really says much on the price.. but its good to get it when u buying in bulk with the whole package.. they might sell u cheaper.... just 1 thing... get the accessories at other shop.. coz some sell them at even half price..  Last minute make up my mind to take the bomb. So ended up bought D90 + Nikon 18-200mm. Burst budget. Guess I have to bite the bullet http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...entry22166679
