Photography People...

Canon yes, but do you want heavy options like a DSLR (350D or 400D), or point and shoot with good out of the box photos and easy setup (S3 IS)?
 
I'm a Nikon girl, but the camera i'm getting next is the D200 and it's at least $1400.
 
Yeah it's pretty much either Nikon or Canon you'd choose from then, and with alot of the cameras, the difference is pretty small.

I'm a Nikon girl too!

You should probably check out each of the brands catalogue, and see if you can find something that would fit you best. Now, because I'm not very rich, or too awesome with the camera either, I got myself a simple step-in camera, the D50. It's quite awesome, even with its low price. Although I think the D40 is meant to take its place now..?
 
I'm a Nikon guy also but I'm really pissed at their poor noise immunity... So yeah, when I have to recommend something to someone, I usually tell them to get either a Nikon D200 or Anything Canon. My D70 gets really sucky at ISO 800 and more.

As for you, I don'T know... It depends on what you intend to do. I'd tell you to go with a Rebel (around 1200 dollars) but that might be out of your range. Tell me your budget and I'll tell you what I think

I'm doing the pictures for my next calendar myself. THe calendar will be scantily clad metalhead women. I've been told I have natural talent in this so I'm going to go for it and it's something I enjoy doing. I'll probably end up trying to get a Rebel on ebay, but I don't want to spend more than 500 for one if I can help it.
 
My boyfriend has Canon EOS 400D and he says it's good enough for portraits/model photography

The rebel is nice... it didn't really impress me a whole lot but as I said, the noise immunity of Canon is way better so if you plan on taking pictures with low lights, you are better off with a rebel than a D70, for say...

I'm still debating with myself wether or not I will change brides when I get a new one.. I'm looking at the D200 but still...
 
But it's still less $1200, isn't it? I really don't know.



















in this relationship I'm the one who takes care of shoe finances only
 
I like my cute little S3. Some of those model photos look piss poor to be honest. I think any half decent camera will take a good photo if you set the lighting and custom options correctly.
 
If you're doing close-up portraits, or single-focused whole-body model shots, your best bet is a high-end digital pentax. They excel in such things.

If you don't like the feel for the pentax (rarely people do) I'd go for anything Nikon, they're pretty good as well. Very good round camera, capable of everything.

Canon is my favorite brand, and definitely good for everything you can throw at it. I like 'em especially for scenic photography.

But then again, most people will say it's the lens and the user that makes the picture, not the camera. The camera is very much just a personal preference for options and such.

Personally, I'm happy with just a manual film camera with no presets.
 
film is too limited. Can't toss it on a PC, no preview in most AFFORDABLE cameras... and I don't like film rolls.
 
There are really cool things you can do with film in a blackroom that you can't do without photoshop and such.

Plus it's fun to use a blackroom. I feel i have more of a connection with my photography than I would when I use a digital.

Plus it's a part of history in photography.
 
I fell in love with an older Nikon model, so I'm kinda partial to that brand :)

Nothing beats making contact sheets and prints in the darkroom. The sound of the water running is so relaxing *swoon*

And developing your own prints is so magical..I fucking love it. :Spin:
