dslr camera lenses prices in india image
Neeraj
Hi..actually it was a dream for me to buy a camera(NIKON or CANON) for many year i was wishing ,so when it comes closer to buy a camera i am actually confused.its because i am confuse with DSLR or Bridge camera(Long Zoom-Point and Shoot) to buy.also adding more detail i actually like to take distance photos(long zoom) also meeting low light conditions in the night photos.also adding i like to buy a DSLR camera but with the money in my hand (about 35000) i cannot but a long ranged(in zoom) DSLR camera..
some of the cameras that i have researched through this period : Nikon series P510,D3100,D3200,D5100 & CANON series SX40HS,1100D,550D
also Its not a case of mixing both DSLR and point and shoot ...i am actually confused with long zoom range of point and shoot(bridge) cameras and DSLR's long shoot camera lens are high price range(and mine only a budget of 35000)
so kindly please provide a suitable suggestion for which camera (also any other cameras u can suggest) to buy within my price range
thanks in advance
Suggest a Camera to buy in below 35000 price range?
Answer
True you can get a DSLR with the 18-55mm kit lens for 35k
but long zoom or low light will mean additional lenses
and mind you quality lenses cost money ... loads of money
35k for a bridge sounds more reasonable
Panasonic have launched the Lumix FZ200, unfortunately yet to be launched in India
Ditto features as the FZ150, http://www.panasonic.co.in/wps/portal/home/products/digitalav/digitalstillcamera/superzoom/dmcfz150
but with a constant aperture of F/2.8 throughout its zoom range + more

Hopefully price will be 35 to 40k
check if it suits you

I want your guidance on DSLR & Lens available ?

I want to purchase DSLR, I am new to digital photography & want to purchase one good camera along with one lens.
Mainly I want to use it for day to day photography, surely not for fashion or wildlife photography.
After looking at catalogues related to cameras & lens, I am confused & not able to make my decision.
I like canon EOS 400D & 450D with good zoom capabilities (may be 30X) but not sure about Nikon & I have no idea about lens & its functions.
Can all masters here suggest me one ??
Budget 30000 Indian Rupees
Answer
The Canon 400D and 450D are very good cameras. The 450D is newer and it has more megapixels, a slightly larger LCD screen, and it has Live-View (which lets you use the LCD screen to take pictures). These are minor improvements, but nice to have. The image quality and all of the other important things are the same.
Canon also makes a 1000D model. The 1000D is also newer than the 400D, but these two cameras are almost identical. And like the 400D, it is cheaper than the 450D.
Personally, I think that the only real advantage of the 450D is the slightly larger LCD screen. I would not pay the higher price for that. (In the USA the price difference between the 400D and 450D is $80.)
Instead, I would get either the 400D or the 1000D - whichever one you can find cheaper in India. In the USA the price is almost the same... because the camera is almost the same.
Lenses...
All three of these cameras can be purchased as a kit with the Canon 18-55mm zoom lens. This is only 3x zoom, but that is enough for about 80% of what most people photograph. You can buy lenses with a lot more zoom range, but that would go over your budget. For example, Canon has an 18-200mm zoom (11x zoom) and Tamron has an 18-270mm zoom (15x zoom) for Canon cameras. (This Tamron lens has the biggest zoom range of any lens for a dSLR camera. A 30x zoom lens does not even exist.)
If you want to get the most zoom range within your budget, purchase the camera with two lenses: the 18-55mm and either an inexpensive 55-200mm lens or a cheap 70-300mm lens. But since you do not mention anything that requires a lot of zoom range, I would start out with simply the 18-55mm lens. You can always purchase an additional lens later on.
Nikon...
The Nikon D60 and the cheaper D40 are also within your budget. The D40 is actually cheaper than all of the Canon models, but it is also the least advanced of all of these options. Still, even the D40 can produce fantastic images. The only thing that it really misses compared to the rest, is that it only has 6 megapixels. This matters if you want to create large prints (larger than a full page) but otherwise it's not that important - the number of pixels says nothing about image quality.
If you have the opportunity, compare some of these cameras in your hands at a camera shop. You might find that you prefer the way a particular brand feels or works. If so, let that be the deciding factor, because this image quality and the important functions are the same with all (five!) of these cameras.
If price alone is the deciding factor, I would get the Nikon D40. It is perfectly good and it is the cheapest of the bunch. This would leave the most money for (extra) lenses or other items.
