As per a suggestion via a previous question, does anyone know of an affordable DSLR camera/ lens rental website? I don't find $200 a day for a Nikon D3 affordable...Any help would be greatly appreciated!


Answer
Don't know! Better do a lot of quick high quality photos in the time you rent, ha, ha, lol. I know it's not funny but just had to throw that in.

5 guidelines in buying a digital cameras,cannon and sony brand only ,nikon is optional.?




grammo


what are the 5 basics steps in buying a digital cameras,i prefer ,cannon and sony brand only ,nikon is optional.


Answer
Are you talking about P&S cameras? If so remember that Sony P&S cameras use proprietary memory cards. Canon and Nikon use the same SD / SDHC cards.

In the choice of buying a DSLR is exactly the same as when buying a 35 mm camera system decades ago.

* Does the system have all the features you will need as an advanced amateur or pro?
* What limitations are there when it comes to the availability of bodies and lenses?
* Which camera system is mature enough to support your photographic career now and in the foreseeable future?
* Which DSLR system offers the best availability of specialized equipment rental?
* Can you use the lenses you have now with future professional level cameras made by the camera company I am considering?

From Ken Rockwell's website.
"Nikon often includes secret features in cameras and in lenses to make them compatible with the next five years or so of secretly planned technology.

For instance, the 1988 F4 is completely compatible with AF-I and AF-S lenses which didn't appear until 1992 and 1998.

Nikon AI lenses in 1977 already had secret lugs on the back which couple lens information to cameras for Matrix metering, not introduced until the FA of 1983.

Zoom AF lenses, ever since they were introduced in 1986, have always had focal length encoders which insert data into today's digital cameras' EXIF data.

AF lenses of today ... still have mechanical lugs for backwards compatibility with the matrix meter of the 1983 FA, and manual focus lenses still have prongs for coupling to the 1959 F."

When I ask those questions as a pro, the order is thus:

1. Nikon ... it has the most lenses, new and used since 1959 that can be used within the system ... Perhaps the most important, all the DX lenses can be used on the FX (full frame) digital cameras and if you don't mind vignetting the 35 mm cameras can use them as well.
2. Canon ... all lenses made since 1988 can be used by current Canon cameras except EF-S lenses ... they cannot be used on Canon 35 mm or full frame digital cameras.
3. Sony ... New kid on the block with no background in professional still cameras. The Sony system can use selected Minolta AF lenses made since the late 1980's
