Good day to all.
Hope all is well.
I am looking into purchasing a DSLR and is really confused as to which one should I buy. I love taking landscape, places, photo session (nude photography) and events (concerts/ parties/ launches/ fashion shows). But I do this all for fun (hobbiest) but still join some photo contest once in a while.
I have narrowed my choices to the 50D and 550D. I have browsed through the forum already and I am sure you often get this comparative question...which one do you suggest?
Below are some of my detailed questions/ considerations:
Hope anyone can give me a clearer picture. I would really appreciate it.

Below are some of my detailed questions/ considerations:
- Price is a concern and I'm opting for the mid-range SLRs. (we rule out the Mark and XDs)
- I used to consider the 500D but since the 550D will be soon out, this is one of my choice. Does anyone have any idea when it will specifically be available in Asia (Philippines)?
- I am quite hesitant w/ the 50D since it was released in 2008 and has no video. Wouldn't be the 50D be below standard of the upcoming 550D (I know that 550D is a beginner compared to the 50D being a semi-pro camera).
Another reason why I'm hesitant with the 50D is that it doesn't have video recording.
Why I am hesitant with the 550D is that it might not be suitable (enough) for my shooting requirements.
Hope anyone can give me a clearer picture. I would really appreciate it.
