Folks,

 

 

Hey guyz..
I am planning to buy a DSLR but do not have much idea about them. I have seen that with point and shoot, cannon is the best. But with DSLR, I hear Nikkon's name more than others. Which DSLR do you suggest me to buy? My budget is $700. With this price can I get a decent DSLR which won't be obsolete in few years? I saw that Nikkon D7000 is in the range of $1200, and with this price, I hope it is REALLY GOOD! but sadly, it is out of my budget :(

I have always been passionate about photography, now its time to follow my passion !

Your suggestions needed !

Thanks.

 pentax produces good DSLRs for the price you can afford. also, if you are not a pro photographer and just started photography, get started with one of the megazoom cameras (also called bridge cameras), they have almost all features DSLRs have, some even have features that DSLRs don't have but the thing is they are not fully developed as in DSLR, e.g. a DSLR might offer shutter lag shooting upto 5 minutes, but a megazoom might offer only up to 1 minute. 
canon is good for point n shoot, but that's not true regarding megazooms, look into panasonic, they are highest rated megazooms. fat beast or drkanchoo owns a megazoom, check somewhere up in the thread and ask them before buying a camera.
but, if you really want a DSLR for about 700, i'd say go for pentax, they are good camera makers.

 @livetorock bro,
if you want to buy canon get a used 40D with 50mm f1.8 lens
If you want to go nikon get a D90 (get used if you can find one) with nikon 35mm f1.8 lens you will love it.
I havent personally used D90 but some of my friends own it, its brilliant.
I still use 40D and all the photos below are taken with 40D so I can assure you it is a good camera.

 divdude,
what kind of lenses do you use? your pics are amazing. what software do you use for processing your images?

 @lamopuri,
  Thanks for taking a look. I mainly use canon 400 and 500mm lenses along with 100mm macro. I always shoot
raw and use photoshop for processing. If you have any further questions ping me in flickr if you got account.
