Question? Buying a camera - need some help! - Page 2 - The Postgame Pub

RNPoo7 · 06-19-2008, 08:31 AM

Yeah I was on there few mins yesterday. I'll do more readings today.

SD FTW and CF FTL

Here's the thing. I don't care at all about the megapixels. Like I said, It doesn't make sense to me as to why they cram to many more pixels in the same sized sensor.

I guess you can say I'm more concerned with quality options than "friendly" options.

30D is a professional, right? Is the XSi a consumer pro or a professional?

The XSi sounds pretty good right, only problem is the price. I bet it's expensive since it's relatively new.

Not sure, what do you guys think?

Yeah I heard that's a pretty nice camera.
I think I'm gonna stick with Canon though. No real reason. Just been reading up on them so much that I'm gonna try them and learn on them.

I've been doing a lot of reading yesterday and finally got my shit somewhat together. lol

I can get a Rebel XSi (black) with
Canon 18-55mm lens
8GB memory card
Camera Case
Mini Tripod
Cleaning kit

From ebay for $575 shipped

$605 with 10% coupon then $30 off if I apply for their Mastercard.

I think that's a pretty good price. But if I do that I won't have money to buy another lens to play with.
