Senor Me G
I would like to get any advice from more serious photographers out there who own a digital dslr, I am an aspiring photographer and I'm unsure what to look for in cameras. I could do the typical person thing of going on some electrical store website and looking up the more expencive cameras but I know that there are older models from Canon etc that are used by professional photographers as their number 1 choice. My price range would be around £200 (330 USD).
I am not necessarily looking for any extra features such as HD video filming (as most of the newer models seem to have) etc.
Any additional advice would be very welcome.
Answer
the most popular makes are Canon and Nikon. I will assume your gonna pick one between these 2.
people in these days talk a lot about the pros and cons about these 2 makes but honestly speaking, you can adjust the style and colour depth of your pictures within the camera settings so I dont think there is big differences.
so i will talk about it in real life.
a camera body wont cost much but good camera lens costs a lot. when i purchased my first dslr 4 years ago, my friends around me used Canon so i bought a Canon 350d, so that we can share all the lens we have and save a lot.
2nd point to be considered is, short range lens for canon is cheaper than nikon and long range lens for Canon like 70-200 F2.8 IS USM is more expensive than Nikon.
hope this could help you.

Camera recommendations?
Li
What would you recommend that you have used and been satisfied with, based on the following requirements?
-Clear, crisp images and colors, even in movement
-Something with a larger view (that could also be reduced) to capture a landscape for example
-No delay
-Great zoom
-Something that is automatic enough to adjust to various types of lighting for example but that also allows you to adjust settings manually for desired effects
-Price under $1000 if possible
-For personal and possibly professional photography
-Decent size and weight
Thank you.
Answer
The first three are easy. Buy a DSLR .. you can bright a great zoom as well as other lenses. Complete control and some automatic features are also available on DSLR's. You can get started with as little as $470 buying a Nikon D40 with 18-55 mm lens on Amazon. While the D40 is a good personal camera, the lenses can later be used when you eventually buy the professional D3 body.
Decent size and weight .. now that is where you will have to explain what you mean by that. Shooting professional assignments, the heavier the better. A heavy camera like the Nikon D3 or Canon 1Ds Mark III helps when shooting handheld exposures, its size can make it easier to hold and control.
