Sony Alpha DSLRA350X 14.2MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot Image Stabilization with DT 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 & DT 55-200mm f/4-5.6 Zoom Lenses

This is my first DSLR camera. I bought for a photography course. If you are thinking of buying the kit with two lenses, buy an 18-250mm or a 18-300mm lens instead. Sony, Tamron, and Sigma make pretty decent lenses for under $550.Buy Sony Alpha DSLRA350X 14.2MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot Image Stabilization with DT 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 & DT 55-200mm f/4-5.6 Zoom Lenses!

Sony Alpha DSLRA300X 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot Image Stabilization with DT 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 & DT 55-200mm f/4-5.6 Zoom Lenses

This is a great DSLR camera. I've been completely satisfied with it. I originally decided on Sony because the ability to re-use my old Minolta Maxxum lenses (which is a huge plus). The Live View was a big selling point for choosing the A300 over the A100 or A200 (as well as over Canon and Nikon), it's definitely worth it for the LCD tilt and taking pictures like you do with point and shoot. My kids and wife exclusively takes pictures that way.

The stabilizer also is very good and helps alot - as I mentioned, even my son (7 yrs) can take very good pictures.

My only complaint is the popup flash, I wish it was a little higher and possibly a little more powerful. I do see some pictures have a shadow from the front of the lense cover (or overhang - not sure that its called).

Overall, a great DSLR camera for the beginner, you will not be disappointed. I would definitely recommend purchasing the LCD cover to protect it from scratches.Buy Sony Alpha DSLRA300X 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot Image Stabilization with DT 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 & DT 55-200mm f/4-5.6 Zoom Lenses!

Nikon D60 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm AF-S VR Zoom Lens + Nikon 55-200mm AF-S VR Zoom Lens + 8GB SD Card + EN-EL9 Battery + Case + Cameta Bonus Accessory Kit

Cameta Camera has moderate OK customer relations, but they sell a great camera package. My wife and I have been taking pictures non-stop with this camera and they all look great. We eventually purchased a book from here as well since the instruction manual is not so easy to follow. Now we are taking all kinds of great shots. People have asked us to do family portraits and next years Christmas card shots already. The accessories are very useful, especially the case, since it is a large but surprisingly light camera. The only reason I can see getting the D90 over this is if you want video, but I did not. The only negative I can think of is that the software it comes with is very weak. I know have it link up with Adobe photoshop and it is much faster and quicker. Use the SD card USB reader provided and picutres upload in a flash. If you are afraid to go bigtime with your camera, this is the one for you. It is ready to shoot on Auto mode right out of the box, so you can start taking amazing pictures right away.Buy Nikon D60 Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm AF-S VR Zoom Lens + Nikon 55-200mm AF-S VR Zoom Lens + 8GB SD Card + EN-EL9 Battery + Case + Cameta Bonus Accessory Kit!

Nikon D60 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens + 8GB Deluxe Accessory Kit

I actually purchased this same package with a 55-200 VR Zoom Nikon lens added and I was skeptical. I had been through this routine before - the merchant calls or sends an email and requires a "discussion" before your order is filled. That "discussion" is an opportunity for the merchant to hard-sell you everything from over-priced batteries and memory cards to an extended warranty not worth the paper it's printed on.

NOT the case with Ace Photo. Oh, the call came. But when I answered, it was simply a rep from Ace telling me my order was shipping out the next day. No hard sell. No waste of time. No realization that the "pain" isn't worth the hassle. These guys have the best price and they don't seem to operate like the overzealous New York-based camera and video hucksters.

This package was a pleasant surprise. I planned on getting the camera, two Nikon lenses and figured the rest would go to the yard-sale pile. Everything they included in this package surprised me. The tripod is extremely light and well-made. The memory is name brand. Even the "throw-away" items like the screen protectors and lens cleaning kit have real value. My hat's off to you Ace - you guys seem to be able to do what your competition can't - merely sell someone what they want without the pressure.

Everything was quite well packaged. The box was marked "Medical Instruments - Extremely Fragile" and my shipment came in perfect order four days after I placed the order (I chose ground shipping). Nothing could have worked out better....true the case is somewhat suspect, but it didn't really fit everything anyway so I have no complaint. I'll find something to do with it even though I don't plan on putting my new D60 and lenses in it.

Oh, and by the way, the camera is EXCELLENT as well. Just getting used to it but so far, so good. I'm having fun and I'm quite pleased with the money I saved. I will not hesitate to give more of my business to this company. Buy Nikon D60 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens + 8GB Deluxe Accessory Kit!

Canon Digital Rebel XS 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Black) + Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens + Spare LP-E5 Battery + 4GB Card + Gadget Bag

The Rebel XS is a solid SLR but lacks a few features that I expected, but didn't think to ask about. First, you can't fire a slave flash - there is simply no place to plug one in. Second, exposure bracketing is limited to three shots, not the usually available five. Finally, exposure bracketing is not an option when operating the camera remotely using a PC. Shame on me for not knowing about these weaknesses before buying, but shame on Canon for not building them in.Buy Canon Digital Rebel XS 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Black) + Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS Lens + Spare LP-E5 Battery + 4GB Card + Gadget Bag!

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 12.1MP Digital SLR Camera with Lumix G Vario 14-45 mm f/3.5-5.6 ASPH Mega OIS Lens (Black)

I am a professional photographer and I have looked for a perfect take-it-anywhere camera since I abandoned my Nikon 28Ti when I stopped shooting film. I have had everything in the small camera class from the original Nikon Cp950 to the Panasonic LX3. I had Canon G9 &10s, the Pro-1, various Fujis and a Ricoh compact. None of them came close to delivering the sort of image I get from a real DSLR. For a while I used a Canon Rebel TXi, but it just wasn't a size savings because the lenses are so big.

Enter the G1. It's very small, but still easy to use and hold steady. The lenses are tiny. You can use Leica-M lenses with a cheap adapter. The image quality is right there with a DSLR. Not quite as good as a Canon 5D at ISO 800, but fully useable at everything up to 1600 ISO. The G1 at 800 is better than the G10 at 100.

I highly recommend this camera to any serious photographer looking for a small, high quality alternative to a big DSLR with way better quality than even the best small sensor camera.
