So Many DSLR’s to Choose From
Posted by Nam-o | Filed under Electronics
I’ve been wanting to grab a new dslr for the longest but bumming off of people have helped ease my sudden urge from time to time. I’m in need of recommendations; the usage of the camera will be split down 50/50.. business and personal. Nothing too heavy, but nothing too cheap too, I want something Goldie Locks would love to steal in some stranger’s house.
**In regards to the business end, I’m not a professional photog. I just want better picture quality in my pics for me to use on my web/graphic design projects. Don’t steering me away from dslr; you can’t beat the reaction time with a typical point-and-shoot and those half-way point-and-shoot/want-to-be dslr**
I’ve looked at a couple already like..
Nikon’s D40
_Comments_ Nice and small. The auto focus is banging! It’s the gramp’s of the my line-up but not too sure if I should wait or grab this because I’ve found some online for around $400. Since this camera doesn’t have the auto-cleaning mech., not too 100% sure if that’s a deal breaker.
Nikon D40
Sony’s a200, a300, a350, a700
_Comments_ Another Nice camera. Love the fact the Auto Focus is built into the body. Fits real comfy in my hands. The a300 and a350 seems like it has struck the sweet spot in regards price and features (live view and flip out, hip shooting screen) but I might lean more towards the cheaper a300 kit (2 lenses).
Sony A300
Canon’s brand spank’in new XSI and XS
_Comments_ Hey.. it’s spank’in new. Probably considered as the poor man’s 40D in terms of photo quality. Probably grab the XSI over the XS because it’s roughly a $40 difference. Did I meantioned awesome photo quality?!
Canon XSI
So there you have it. On the high end, I love the XSI. On the more low end, D40 still floats my boat.. and sitting right in the middle the Sony a300’s.
What would you choose.. or do you have any other recommendations?
