Whut up ppl'z...!?

Im thinking about buying a really good Camera to take pictures of
Cars,Models,landscapes etc.... What are good cameras out on the market that are really really good, but then again nothing super Professional, but close to it lol, for a good price/deal..
If im thrwing out sum cash for a camera it better be a high on pixels and great quality!..... anywho,,,, Suggestions/website links from u photographers would be greatly apreciated..(rep will be given) Thnx..

 

Alright, well I am no professional by anymeans but DO YOUR RESEARCH INSTEAD OF LISTENING TO SOMEONE ON TR Personaly, I have the Canon 30D with the ultrasonic lens w/ image stabilizer and am 100% happy with it (if youre dissatified with this camera, you have problems )

I have a few questions for you....

1. What style of camera are you looking for?
-A DSLR or standard style of camera?

2. You're going to hear this more than just from me; MEGA PIXELS are waaaay over rated! A 5.0 or higher will be for what youre looking for. As long as youre not Blowing a picture up to poster size, youre going to be satisfied with the picture quality.

3. Are you going to be using photoshop at all to edit your photo's?

 

30d is a badass camera. the sony alpha100 is a good camera for starters I think. Thats what we have. We really love it. The Canon 5D is also a great camera and I think I will own one 1 day. Nikons are nice but I was really impressed with the sony, especially for the price. Plus you can get 20 year old lenses off ebay for hella cheap and they work with it np.

 

Probably Standard style... .. yea i hear 5.0 is good enough as well...and yess offcourse all my pictures will be edited in photoshop!
the Canon 30D sounds like a good camera.. im reading up on some stuff about it!. thnx man!

 

If your wanting to take any kind of meaningful pictures like the types you mentioned, your going to want to stay away from a standard p-a-s.

A good camera to jump into the game with is a Nikon brand DSLR. I'm not saying Nikon > Canon, but with a Nikon, things are a lot more user friendly for first time/novice photographers.

 

how much u think im looking to spend around for one$$ ?

 

Somone was selling a good starter kit not even a week ago. It was a rebel xti with extra battery and lenses for 550 which is real good.

 

Honestly if hes never used either. Though i've seen a few fresh ppl get lost with Nikons. I use a Canon and Nikons are confusing in the menu system to me just cause im not used to it.

Every major manufacturer has a good starter kit setup, Pentax, Olympus, Nikon, Canon, Samsung, Sony, and Fuji. They all have good starter setups for $500-$600 range. The real major plus to Canon and Nikon is the abundance of third party support and pricing for them.

 

^^^ $550-$600 range aint bad!... thank you guyz for the help!..

 

Just keep your eyes open. I actually got my kit from somebody on TF. d50 Body, 2 lenses, 2gig. Card, Bag, Tripod, Boxes, Manuals, Warrenties, the whole nine yards... All for under $800!
