Title: Camera for starters? Post by: adnan.27 on September 24, 2010, 01:35:50 PM I'm interested in pursuing photography as a hobby, but i'm not really sure which DSLR to purchase. I was hoping that someone could guide me.
(I'm a noob, i don't really know too much) I'd be grateful if anyone could help me out. Thanks. Title: Re: Camera for starters? Post by: KeithB on September 24, 2010, 03:47:16 PM The Canon XS kit should be fine. It comes with everythng you need: The camera, a pretty good lens and a small card. Your first purchase should be a larger card.

What do you want a DSLR to provide that a point and shoot can't? Title: Re: Camera for starters?

You can start out with the most basic body and lens if you want to save money or you can pay a little more and get a little more. Most basic and cheapest - EOS XS w/18-55 - $489 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001CBKJGG/bobatkinsphotogr) Better and costs a little more - EOS T1i w/18-55 - $689 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B001XURPQS/bobatkinsphotogr) Best beginner camera - EOS T2i w/18-55 - $899 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0035FZJHQ/bobatkinsphotogr) |
