I am looking to replace my point and shoot camera with a DSLR camera. Does anyone have any suggestions to a camera for a beginner? What specs should i look for?
Answer
Any of the entry level DSLRs would keep you happy for a few years. I'd pick either Canon or Nikon. I have a LOT of contact with other photographers and time and time again it seems that either one of those are most likely to make their owners happy.
The most important part is to buy only the best lenses - camera bodies get upgraded, lenses stay with us.
You WILL regret buying cheap lenses.
Don't rush into buying lenses. Start with a kit lens, get to know your camera, that lens, and all photographic principles.
Through time and through use, you will eventually KNOW what other lenses you'll need/want.
The more time you'll take, the less likely you are to regret your choices.
If you know anyone close to you with a camera, consider borrowing lenses and "picking their brain" about their camera and whatever else they know.
Go to a store and hold a few cameras, see how they feel to YOU.
Do lots of research before you buy, and start learning about photography, too.
Keep in mind that buying a DSLR isn't cheap, even if you find a good deal for body and kit lens.
You'll also want and/or need a few other things such as tripod, filters, a bag, sensor cleaning gear, a second battery, memory cards, perhaps a remote shutter release etc.
That's just the small stuff - I can guarantee you that you'll also want more and more lenses.
You'll also want a decent flash some day.
See how that list just goes on and on?
Owning a DSLR isn't cheap - at least not until you have built up a nice stash of gear.
Just some food for thought........

Can you get different lens for fujifilm finepix S2500hd?

I bought a fujifilm finepix S2500hd DSLR camera. It comes with a lens but i am wondering whether you can buy different lens for it like a macro lens or something.
Have looked on amazon and Ebay but can't find any.
Thanks:)
Thanks guys i didn't know:)
Answer
The fujifilm finepix S2500hd is not a DSLR but what is called a "bridge camera". It has a small sensor like a point and shoot, but with the look and feel of a DSLR. The lens is not changeable. You can purchase filter type adapters to place in front of your lens to add to the wide angle, telephoto or macro abilities of that lens. Your camera should feature a nice, built in macro feature already.
