I started from good old Canon XTi about 3 years ago. Now I own Canon 5D Mark II. The latest entry level DSLR for Canon is T2i which is about $200 expensive than T1i and has better HD video shotting capabilities. T1i is a good entry level DSLR which also has HD video shooting capabilities. For beginners like you, I would say this camera is good enough if the budget is right for you.

It's a nice and high specification camera but not very flexible optically. optical zoom lens included is 18-55mm zoom lens which is suitable for normal photography. If you want to take a picture of distant objects and  pictures under high light intensity you need higher zoom lens like 17-200mm or telephoto lens. So it depends how u want to use it. e.g. If you want to go Nepal and want to take a pictures of birds it's definetily not suitable. Although it has 15.1MP it's not CCD, it's CMOS sensor. CMOS need more processing power.

I am happy with may Nikon D3000 and if not a real professional you may not able to utilize it fully. The reason I bought it, once we were in Nepal and wanted to give our simple digital camera and they asked us is it DSLR? What the hake we doing in America , felt to pay and get a good camera to satisfy myself possessing a DSLR. That is the story from my side. Not trying to be funny  but expressing the truth.  Obviously picture quality are far better than digital camera and can not be compared.  Last edited: 29-Jun-10 01:07 PM
