I'm going to get a digital camera soon. I can't decide if I want to get this camera: http://www.techondigital.com/product.asp?productid=15747988
or save up a lot more to get this: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5607412
I'm an amateur photographer with pretty much no experience with manual controls, but I want to learn. Both those cameras have manual controls. I also want to be able to get different lenses and filters for my camera. The S700 has many lenses and filters that are under $100, while the D40 lenses are pretty expensive, considering I'm a 15 year old. I've done a lot of research on the S700, and some pictures I've seen from it are amazing. Do you think it would be a good choice to get the S700 and a couple lenses/filters instead of the D40 with a simple lens? I'm leaning towards the S700 because of the price, picture quality from stuff I've seen, affordable add on lenses/filters, and everything an amateur photographer would need.
