CedarBranchNikon said:Would a good used D100 be a better camera than a D50? I see the original price, a D100 was double the price of a D50. Would the age difference make that much difference in two cameras in "equal" condition? I look at a Nikon comparison chart trying to compare the "bells and whistles" and it can get confusing. Even though I have a "highly technical" background in the manufacturing industry, still when you start reading camera specs. it can really get "heavy". Appreciate all the input so far.
No, the d100 is older then the d50, and while it has a more pro like feel, doesn't perform as well.
Id suggest a d90 if u can afford it, much better performance then the d50 for about $200 more on the used market.
U might also consider a d200, which is a little cheaper then the d90, but has an all metal body and a more professional control layout. The d90 has a better sensor and video, but the d200 handles better.
