I would favor the XTi over say the Nikon D40/x/60 because the canon is able to autofocus its lenses as the D40/x/etc. will only autofocus certain lenses.

ok that's cool are tripod's available for these.

500 buck's aint maybe ill ask for it for christmas.

then later on If I am still doing it, Ill move on to a Better Camera, like a Nikon, theyll probably have something better out by then and the D90 probably wouldnt compare at that point. ill definetely take the camera into consideration.

something better like nikon? that makes no sense. however, my price for the camera/lens has fallen so keep it in mind.

what do you mean, I am saying I am focused on bettering my education rather then playing with a camera, but would still have interest in buying a cheaper camera, til i could afford something better then the Canon you mention, But then there's always christmas around the corner that I could ask for it.

97TurboDSM 11-30-2008 04:53 PM

thats much better.

mustang08 11-30-2008 05:05 PM

no not neccessarily, I mean Sony is pretty good to.

97TurboDSM 11-30-2008 05:17 PM

what? Canon is arguably the best company on the market. I'll never shoot anything other than Canon and you'll find a load of other members on here that feel the same way.

I can belive that because all they make is cameras and stuff to go along with them which means they have alot of study in cameras i have always thought of canon and nikon being better then sony or something like that. Its like dell or apple where they just make computers. Well also apple makes ipods but still they were know for computers first lol

Loserkidwac 11-30-2008 05:28 PM

just to add to this sony makes the sensors in Nikon cameras...or at least a bunch of them ;) however I wouldn't buy a Sony SLR...

Because I really havent played with Canon Product's before if any, I was never really favored to them. I always knew of Nikon being one of the best Camera company's around, Canon Just recently jumped higher in the game over the past few year's
