Hey guys,
I am in the market for a Digital SLR Camera. Which one should I buy?
My preferences are as follows:
1. Higher the megapixels, the better. But not less than 7mp.
2. More optical zoom, the better.
3. I don't know how realistic this is, but cheaper the better. $500-$700 range... realistic?
But then, should I even buy a DSLR? Should I just opt for one of those cute compact ones? What am I losing by choosing compact instead of SLR? I read somewhere that the size of the lens matters, so the pictures with DSLR are better than with Compact Digitals. What do you think?
I want to shoot pictures that I can enlarge and hang on the wall as portraits, as well as personal pictures of friends and family that I want to share via web.
C'mon, photography gurus, please advise.
