- Photos NOT OK to edit
You're going to spend more money on lenses than on camera bodies. And if you choose to be a wise guy and not invest in quality lenses, then you're going wonder why you can't get teh beautiful bokeh in your photos. So buy a dSLR body that is comfortable and does not have any unnecessary features and spend the rest on good glass.
And perhaps buy a video camera to shoot video. I'm guessing the quality will be better.
Didn't even pay any attention to this reply the first time through.
Bokeh should be one of the OP's last cares with what they're interested in shooting.
And DSLRs have the ability to switch to some great glass and have quality that you can only touch in dedicated video cameras that cost a lot more.
There's some limitation, but if you were to look, you'd see that SNL, indie movie producers, feature film producers, and others that are in the film industry have used the 5D MKII over traditional cameras in eaither part of the movies/skits/videos or over the whole entire thing.
Recommending a person buy a completely different product without having any idea that what they're looking at in the first place is more than capable of doing in the first place (And with better quality) is basically telling them to waste their money.
