Just wondered who has a DSLR, what brand, and do you like it?

I currenty have a Fuji S5200 (non SLR) which I truly like, but am thinking of making the jump to DSLR.

Have been looking at the Canon Rebel XSi.
Also the T1i, but that is a couple hundred more.

I have an Olympus e-520 I like it alot would still like have a Nikon D-90 though.

Olympus E-Volt 500

Nikon D40

I have Canon EOS 350D (called Rebel in USA). I like it.

We use the Canon line of bodies.
Going backwards in the digital line
eos 5d, rebel xti, 20d
Prior to that when film was in use for small format were the eos 1n, 10s, rebelg.

Going forward 5d-mkii's will be in use in time for the 2010 wedding season.


The rebel xsi or t1i would both be very good bodies to begin with.
Also possibly the 50d though it is much more expensive than the xsi body,
it is more solidly built.

Do you think it has changed for the worse because of the digital tech? I'm curious for your opinion on that.
I personally think the pictures I shot with my old AE1 Program are much higher quality then anything digital I have seen so far.

Yep

I have an oldie but a goodie..... I use a Nikon D1H which was a pro style body back around 2001 and cost about 4 g's..... much cheaper these days!

I used my 70-200 f2.8 to shoot this photo of Buddy Guy:

We use Nikon D 80s and 90s, in the School day biz. I have 2 D 80s that have over 100,000 shots still going strong, these cameras are good horses! We normaly retire them after 50K.

Hey, Boy Blue is back!

I use a Canon EOS 30D for work. (Also use it out of work - saves me buying one myself ). Haven't felt the need to upgrade for more megapixels yet. I frequently print at 20"x30" with no problems. I use the Canon L-series 24-70 and 24-105IS lenses. My wife has a Nikon D50.

My best advice when buying a DLSR outfit (or any SLR for that matter) is spend the most money on the Lenses. I'd rather miss out on some camera features and get an awesome lense. I used to work in photographic retail and the number of people who'd come in and spend literally thousands on a top of the line Nikon or Canon and then buy the cheapest entry level lense for it. Sheesh!

Cheers.
