I shot with a Canon Digital Rebel. It's a great little camera and takes nice photos and the color is CORRECT. (I've had problems with Nikon on this, but it might just be me being picky.) A 10D, 20D, etc. would be good, too. And they aren't that ridiculously expensive anymore, which is awesome.<BR/><BR/>Let me know when you decide to get one. If you need advice or someone's brain to pick, I'd be happy to help out!EPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08600424792398230829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-59929674371220050862008-10-03T20:45:00.000-04:002008-10-03T20:45:00.000-04:00I realize I'm late to the game here, but here's my...I realize I'm late to the game here, but here's my 2 cents anyway.<BR/><BR/>I have 2 cameras. My point and shoot is a Sony Cybershot which I love. It takes great pictures with virtually no delay.<BR/><BR/>My other camera is a DSLR, the Canon Digital Rebel XT. I got it this summer and it's amazing. I thought the Cybershot took nice pictures...the DSLR blows them away. 100% worth it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-45303107287593831032008-09-29T13:47:00.000-04:002008-09-29T13:47:00.000-04:00I got the Canon Rebel Xsi off of amazon.

Also, one thing to research is the memory cards. mine came with the SD card, while the xti is compact flash, so we would have had to buy a special adaptor for the compact flash if we would have bought the xti. In the end it would have been about the same price, so going with the xsi worked out well for us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03511053465216495710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-11663603842085891022008-09-29T03:22:00.000-04:002008-09-29T03:22:00.000-04:00Man, that sucks you lost your camera -- but that'...Man, that sucks you lost your camera -- but that's great your hubby was looking for a new on for you online!

As for DSLR's, every good photographer I know uses a Canon. When I was in journalism school I found that all the photojouranlists with no art background used Nikons, and all those who dabbled or were educated in art used Canons. I've never used a Nikon, so I can't say which is better, but that was my observation. My brother just got a Canon Digital Rebel of some kind that's pretty sweet. Anyway as far as good DSLRs go, Nikon or Canon are usually what the pros go with, as far as I know.cjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18338468186546285399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-9462106522517936292008-09-25T17:59:00.000-04:002008-09-25T17:59:00.000-04:00I have actually been doing tons of research on the...I have actually been doing tons of research on the DSLRs for a few months and I'm about to take the plunge and buy a NIKON D80!

It takes amazing pictures, but I would kill for a new digital one. Well, maybe not kill, but, you know. I want one really bad. <BR/><BR/>As for my travel camera that I take everywhere so I don't miss a photo opportunity, I have a Canon PowerShot SD750.

Like, I want to make out with it sometimes, especially when I happen to take an awesome photo without even really trying. I don't have the fancy shmancy new Rebel (XSi or something like that) but I have the one just under it. (I want to say it's the XT or the XA or the...oh, nevermind. I don't know.) It was cheaper enough that I had to go with it. And I adore it.<BR/><BR/>I'd say, join the DSLR revolution! Do it! Especially if your hubs seems okay about the price.<BR/><BR/>Can't wait to see what you decide!Kerri W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02124941138885388268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-20102197164656500132008-09-24T21:28:00.000-04:002008-09-24T21:28:00.000-04:00I have a DSLR, I have the Nikon D40 and LOVE it!! ...I have a DSLR, I have the Nikon D40 and LOVE it!!

It's a HP 317 and was around $150. I love it and it takes great pictures, but like you I have been longing and strongly hinting that a DSLR would be a great Christmas gift. The pictures really are that much better.Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14149777435132497067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-26088657389400148332008-09-24T19:36:00.000-04:002008-09-24T19:36:00.000-04:00I LOVE my Canon S-10!I LOVE my Canon S-10!Tipphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10263099633061519938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1778470040348949734.post-6571019522235881512008-09-24T19:32:00.000-04:002008-09-24T19:32:00.000-04:00I am obviously a huge fan of DSLR's all my picture...I am obviously a huge fan of DSLR's all my pictures on my blog come from my Canon 40D.

Wedding photographers just like to carry them around instead of point and shoots because we have inferiority complexes ;) <BR/><BR/>But seriously, if you are in it to better your skills...and are willing to learn, rather than just use an automatic setting... bump up the equipment a notch. If you are iffy on the price, I'd (highly) suggest an older model Canon Rebel. Not the Xsi that just came out, but serach ebay for a canon rebel xt dslr (beware, there are also film version floating about, make sure it is the digital SLR).<BR/><BR/>You'll be able to TONS with it. The lenses will be the hard part. I'd suggest the 50mm f/1.8 for around $70 to go with it... even if it come with a kit lens (probably an 18-55mm ) . The things you will learn with a prime lens are priceless. <BR/><BR/>That's my two cents.

I love it. It's a step below a DSLR and much more compact, but still a fantastic camera with a great lens and it has a macro mode. It costs a little more than basic point and shoots, though.<BR/><BR/>DSLRs, however, are totally worth it. They take great pictures and they allow a lot more autonomy. But you have to consider that they're also a lot bulkier so if you're looking for something you can just stick in your pocket or purse, they might not be the best choice.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15942269316108576622noreply@blogger.com
