I already have a digital camera a Canon Powershot A590 but it lacks the ability to change lenses. I'm looking to upgrade to a DSLR camera and i ran across this camera Pentax K2000. Is this a good camera to buy or is there something better i can buy?


Answer
Buy the newer K-x, it's a replacement for the K2000. The K-x is 650 with kit lens and comes in either white, red, blue, or black. It also has HD video recording, live view, 4.7 FPS, 11 AF points, and up to 12,800 ISO, which is a HUGE improvement over the K2000 and is WELL WORTH the extra pricing over the K2000. I would never get the K2000 with this differential in pricing, I would save up the extra money and get the K-x over it instead. The new K-x has iso levels exceeding the Nikon D300s and D90 which are flagships in APS-C noise levels, with 650 USD you can get better iso noise levels. This camera is a no-brainer and must-have for anybody who knows the technological side of DSLR's and wants to get into the entry-level league. This 12,800 shot below took my breath away, there is no APS-C sensor that will take images at 12,800 with more clarity than the K-x. http://www.lismore.net/images/kx/20091024-IMGP0445.jpg

How much does the Rebel XTi cost?

By tomorrow, I will have saved up $430. I've been looking to buy the Canon Rebel XTi, but I have not been able to see a decent price. The cost isn't a worry to me as much as the different prices I see. One website will say 500, and the other says 900! How much does this product really cost and where is the best place to buy the Canon Rebel XTi KIT!


Answer
First off buy from a reputable dealer. There are more scam camera sites than there are porn sites on the internet.

Part of the difference in price could be what lenses are included with the camera. Also be careful of all the places that load you up with accessories. 90% of them are useless pieces of junk that you absolutely don't want.

The XTi has been discontinued for a while now. You wont find many new ones. If you don't mind used you should be able to get one with the 18-55mm lens for about $350.
If you can find a new one it should be $500 or less.

Personally I think you would be better off just getting a new Rebel XS for $500 with a 18-55mm lens. I think the XTi is a slightly better camera but they have not made it in over a year. The XSi was its replacement or upgrade.
