Heya everyone I am a newbie looking for some camera advice,can anyone help me please?
Recently i have decided to steup up from amaetur point to point shooting to more safisticated photography so i thought i might buy a new camera to go with the idea ,as i have been using my point to point camera for almost 6 years now and the piexels and the quality of it is not very good(its really really grainy :/)
I really like the idea of maybe having a micro 4/3 since it is simliar to a DSLR and may be i can get the feel of it and then later on i might buy a new body or something... I have been thinking about the new panasonic GF1 or the cannon G11 or the the Nikon D5000...however i have quite a tight budget and i hope that this newcamera can last me quite a long time ...can somebody enlight me with some advice please? Are there any panasonic or Nikon users around?
The reason i want to buy a micro 4/3s is because i can have interchangeable lens and the body is really light and small ,but is it true that they only have a limited number of lenses ,unlike the Nikon one which there are lots of different lenese available?However the Nikon is rather heavy and bulky i must say despite the fact that they have lots of usful lenses...would a standard or a entry level DSLR last a very long time ( usage)?
Would a Nikon D5000 be worth the money? But as a amaetur ( like me lol )would it be too much to handle? or would I be better off with a G11 or a micro 4/3s?
I thank you in advance in reading this and helping me!
