Someone told me to start with a Canon Digital Rebel. I dont want to become a pro., just want to be able to take very nice pictures? What kind of camera is best? Any help is greatly appreciated.
eh I would say try and find a nice used 20D or 30D maybe even a 40D if you hve the budget for it. You will be able to grow a lot more with a xxD series body. Its a bigger body and feels more solid. I have played with both the xxD series and Rebel line.... I own a 30D because the Rebels feel to small and dinky to me. The xxD will be something you can have and get better with for a longer time. Shutters are rated for higher life as well.... Lots to think about and consider. You didn't post a budget which alo makes it tought to recommended you anything. You might only have the budget for an XS or XSi so in that case you can't get a 30D and I would recommend getting what you can afford. Also it is NOT the camera that takes the "nice pictures" its you, so I would recommend getting some literature for it to learn about exposure and composition. Hope this helps -Collin
Do you, in fact, really care about being able to change lenses? Or are you simply concerned with a quality photo where everything is in focus and the colors are bright and true? Also, will you be shooting fast moving objects? (kids, cars, planes and the like)
