What is the best DSLR to get for around $700?

dslr camera with twin lens kit image

PeteTheELi

I am planning to buy a dslr for around $650 to $720. I am currently considering the pentax k-x with twin lens kit, which is like a 55mm and 300mm lenses for $720. Any other cameras you suggest I get instead or should I stick with getting the k-x? Thanks.

Answer
Hi PeteTheELite,
I think Nikon D3100 14.2MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AF-S DX VR Nikkor Zoom Lens. Nikon has unveiled the D3100, its latest entry-level offering and its first DSLR that can record full 1080p HD videos.

Can anyone give me idea about the following two? What is the difference?


What about Tamron lens?

What is the problem if I donât have 18mm-27mm (as there is a gap if I go for Tamron)

Canon EOS 450D Digital SLR Camera Twin Lens Kit with : 18-55mmIS + and 75-300 Lens $1229

Canon EOS 450D Digital SLR Camera + Tamron 28-300mm Lens $1,399

Answer
amazon have the Canon EOS 450D aka XSi rebel for $650 with the 18-55mm IS lens and free shipping

you usually want Canon lens with Canon camera bodies...I wouldn't suggest you going with a Tamron to start off 28-300mm is a zoom lens

1st choice is better although the 75-300 zoom lens isn't that great......if it was me I'd just get the camera with the kit lens and get the 55-250mm IS later
