Apologies for the misleading (slightly) thread title. Im in throes of agony over which camera I buy for my first DSLR. At the moment, I have my eye fixed at the 20D/D200 level with a bias towards the D200, however Im anticipating being able to afford the 20D a lot sooner (still at £950 body only in New Zealand; as for the D200, what D200?).
Im well aware that millions of fantastic photos have been taken on much lesser specified cameras, but what Id like to know is, if at some point in the future I want to submit photos for publication, do I need a 10.2 mega pixel camera (D200) to start with? Ive read that 8.2 is borderline without interpolation, for say, a glossy A4 print in a magazine. Do Canon owners of 350D/20Ds get published without interpolation?
LOL, Im not claiming total confidence at getting published by the way, just trying to future-proof the gear against possible future intentions. I want to get this right because I wont be buying a multi $000 camera again. Truth be told, if my wife gets her way, I wont be buying this bugger.
So, in summary, for publication, a D200?
Or will a 20D/350D suffice?
D70s/D50?
Do any of you guys use interpolation software prior to submitting?
If youre still awake, thanks for your time!
