Hey again!
Right, so regarding my previous post, I have had a read about 3 of the 4 DSLR's that were recommended to me by Digi.
I'v read up about the Canon 350D, Nikon D50, and Olympus E-500.
The Canon is ever so slightly taking the lead...
I had to go to PC World today, and out of the corner of my eye I spotted the camera section, and didnt realise that these would be there, but they were so I had a look at them. I wasn't keen on the appearence of the Nikon D50, it was too bulky for me to hold comfortably, I only have lickle hands!
The Canon felt much better in my hands. I must confess I didnt have a proper look at the Olympus as I was convinced I preferred the Canon!
It looked slightly bigger than the Canon though. I also liked the layout of the buttons and screens more on the Canon more than the other 2, except the Olympus has a bigger LCD screen...
Apart from physical appearence, as with most things, they all seem good in their own ways and in different areas, which is the best all round? In the reviews I read, it said that the Canon is the entry level DSLR to beat. Is this true in your experience? Reading too much technical stuff confuses me and I have now officially got to that point!
I must admit I like what I have heard about the Canon, and the availability of the lenses makes a big difference too, as I dont like buying online. There is a shop in High Wycombe that is aparently quite good and its not too far ( i cant remember its name, which isnt really very helpful...! digital something or other lol
), and they sell most of the Canon lenses and Sigma too. They have all 3 of the twin kits, Olympus £599.99, Nikon £559.99, and the Canon £699.99. Typical that the one I like is the most expensive!
Im just glad its not my money, aren't birthdays fabulous!
How long do you think it would be before Id be wanting/needing a better lense after the kit lenses?
I have a budget of £1000 altogether.
I dont think I should write any more! I am very sorry about the long winded way I ask questions...I cant help it!
I think I wrote all I wanted to, Im sure I can add something in a further post of I remember something...
Thanks if you can help!
