What Camera Should I Buy?

[B Rod]

So I'm starting to get the photography bug and would really like to invest in a nice DSLR. I'm definitely a beginner so I'll be learning with this camera, but at the same time I don't want to have to upgrade anytime soon. What would be your suggestions? I'll be looking to spend somewhere in the $500-$700 range and I am quite a fan of Canon, but I know Nikon is right up there. Thanks in advance!

Nikon.

I say buy a used D80, or D200 if you can find one.

[B Rod]

Right now I'm looking to buy new since I can finance it through Best Buy. Would a D60 be a poor choice? It's currently on sale for $570.

[M.Burroughs]

D60 ain't bad.

[B Rod]

Hmmm...I may pull the trigger on this today, before I decide otherwise.

I got my sony for around that. But i know people are hesitant to go to sony

[B Rod]

Well, I ended up going for it. Got the D60 for $569 interest free for 6 months.

And DAMN...memory has gotten CHEAP. $30 for 8 gigs??? I had no idea.

Hahah damn, that was quick. You don't waste any time!

[SeanDub]

I was fuckin with it all night! haha I bet my pics suck. Post em up Bryan!

[B Rod]

Hahah damn, that was quick. You don't waste any time!

Haha, ya. I knew if I thought about it too long I wouldn't have done it. But with 6 months no interest, how could I lose? I have A LOT to learn though. Should be a lot of fun.
My first meal with the camera. It was delicious.

Sean took this one of my dog.
