| Real Camera | [25 November 2006] | |||||||||||||||
|
When I learned that there was such a thing as a real camera (read as SLR), I instantly became interested in getting one. 8 months ago, I was torn between a Nikon D50 and a Canon 350D. But after hanging out on camera forums and having a Canon point and shoot, I focused on getting a Canon. So I read literatures about the Canon equipment and lenses. When I finally found someone generous enough to lend me some money to buy the camera, I've found out that a Nikon D50 body is currently 4 thousand pesos cheaper than the 350D. Since I'm tight on budget, I considered the Nikon body. But looking at the lens for the Nikon body, I got so confused as there are several types. Unlike Canon which only have EF and EF-S, the range of Nikon lenses got me confused. I then asked a Nikon user if I should go for the D50, and he said go for the 350D. I also looked at Ken Rockwell's website (a known Nikon zealot) and he has nothing but praise for the 350D. I was hesitant though of the kit lens as I want my lens to be compatible with film based EOS bodies. I want to get an EOS film camera too. But since budget is tight, I went for the 350D kit.
