Hi there to all forumers! Im new here, guess a newbie
Its been a couple of months (actually since last year) since I am reading and observing this site of yours.
And only had decided recently to pursue this hobby. The main reason it was delayed because of budget, Im a budget conscious guy, but only found out last month that I will start this hobby because of the passion and the love for what you do.
Here is the thing, I havent owned a dslr yet only a point and shoot, and upon my transition to dslr Im not sure what is to buy (both body and other accessories, although my past lurking in this site gives me an idea)
BUDGET: My budget would be around 1K, but willing to extend till 2k, only if really need and if advise properly
THINGS LIKE TO SHOOT: Right now i would say landscapes, and something I can use with during Holiday Trips. Hopefully it this will be a hobby and will have the passion to shoot more.
CAMERAS BEING CONSIDER:
1. Nikon D90
2. Canon 40D
3. Pentax K20
4. Used Nikon D80 then use some remaining money to the lens
*Please dont advise cams more than 2k like the Nikon d300 and Canon50D
* For some reason Im not sure If i will include a Sony system, pls advise
** As for friends/colleges, I guess I really dont have yet so chances of having the same system like them is not that big or advantage. (in case you ask)
** With the above choices Im hoping that i can have the learning curve of photography soon/easy. I am aware that the choices above are not entry level.
** Also Im also considering this, since I am new, why not start my Nikon d40, but Im not sure if im comfortable with manual focusing.
Hope you guys, the expert in this field can give a friendly advise to someone who is lost and just want to join our field
Hope to start this hobby soon and Start Shooting.
Thank you in advance
