thanks (i didnt think those were terribly good - just more of a 'here's what i've been doing this summer')

I went all out and bought the Nikon d300 .. probably more camera than i needed but i used someone else's Nikon and fell in love.

I'm still learning how to use the Nikon .. it's quite a curve... especially the flash i bough - a big semi manual Metz hammerhead... not easy to use right out of the box.

I'm reading good things about the Canon and the Sony Alpha700.

(my previous camera was a Sony Alpha100 and it wasnt bad at all ...

the Alpha 700 is about 1/3 less than the Nikon and it compares favorably.


i believe you can get good digital slr's for $500 - $700 these days.
double the price when you start adding lenses, etc.
