Hey guys,
I have been using a 5M Nikon point and shoot compact digicam till now. I am planning to upgrade to an SLR really soon.
M a first time slr buyer and have a budget of around 1750 USD. I have read a lot on various Cameras as offered by Canon, Nikon and Sony and their lenses. As in I am aware of all the technical stuff and terms like VR, OS, HSM, SWM, APO, ED, DX etc etc. I have an idea about the types of lenses too and their capabilities.
From the prices I checked on the websites, I guess I can buy a Nikon D300, D200, Canon D40, XSi, XTi and Sony A700 & A350 and all the lower end models of each of the company's line up.
I would like to photograph architecture, landscape, wildlife & some closeups (Macros are expensive, but something closer to a macro would help ). I am not able to decide on what camera to buy and what kind of a lens would serve my purpose best.
Please help me out if u can suggest a camera and an accompanying lens in a budget of around 1750 USD. I am not averse to buying a third party lens but would prefer a company lens itself.
Regards
