Hey!
After waiting a few weeks to look around a decided exactly what i wanted, ive been trying to decide, but i just can not quite make a decision, so i am calling apon you for opinions. I have been looking at the Canon EOS 300D, and the Nikon D50. Below i have listed the things that i like about each camera, and things that i dislike. Input is strongly appreciated.
Canon EOS 300D
--------------------------------------------------------------
Alright, The main thing about this camera that i really really like, is that it uses Compact Flash memory, this is a big thing for me, as i have another camera in the house that also uses this, and it would be great to simply be able to swap them when i need to change size, or take the other if needed. Now, the cost, which is a big thing for me, can be nogotiated, if i do choose this camera, i am probably going to have to go after a refurbished one, and im not absolutly sure if that is a good idea.
Nikon D50
--------------------------------------------------------------
Well, with this camera i get have two different options as far as lenses go, i can either go for the Nikon 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6 G Autofocus Lens, or the 18-55mm DX Zoom Nikkor Lens, or i can simply purchase the body only (mentioned again later). Now, the main thing which makes me really want to leave this camera behind is the fact that it uses this SD memory, and unfortunatly, i most likely have every other type of memory card in the house BUT sd memory, so therefore i would i have to buy another card. I really the main setup of this camera though, i love the feel to it, and i love how it looks aswell. I also like how there are tons more accessorys for it to choose from.
Now, as far as this camera goes, i also have the option to simply buy the body only, and then purchase a lens for it afterwards.
Alright, now im gonna ask for your opinion.
