Hi there,
Forgive the trivial "which camera should i get" themed thread, but it is indeed what i wish to know.
Budget is £500 for just the camera and kit lens, the rest: bag, tripod, filters etc. will come later. (£30 a week income from september)
Cameras i am looking at are:
Canon EOS 450D £499 (Do i really need 3200 ISO?)
Sony A300 £329 or £399 for A350 (Apparently the extra 4MP squeezed onto the A350s identical sensor causes a lot of noise at higher ISO settings?)
Nikon D60 £379(Slightly worried by only 3 focus points?)
Then, of course, there is the option of buying only the body and buying a decent lens (i'm told the kit lens' aren't up to standard) but i wouldn't know about that.
There are many proffesional reviews around, but these do not seem to help as much as you would think.
Any advice? I plan to take low-light night shots, cityscapes, macro shots of flowers, water droplet capture shots, ghost effect (long shutter speeds, right?) and the long exposure of traffic.
