Wow, thanks for all the replies
Hmm, I was actually considering the D40 and D40X, but they dun have AEB... Same goes for D60...
Hence, my focus switch to D80.. Hehe, I thk I favour Nikon ;p
Not really much of a "weight" carrying person.. Ha... Hence hope to start off as light as possible
Hmm.. haven had a chance to "feel" the camera.. Perhaps should go down soon...
Btw, what tripods is everyone using? Thk would need a recommendation for a light one..
do note that the D40/x/D60 has no built-in AF drive motor, thus for AF, AF-S and AF-I lenses are required.
Hmmmmm.. the live view portion is very tempting :lovegrin:
canon 450D has live view too. but if u want u still gotta wait (for now).
anw, just some weight specifications:
Nikon D40 - 471g (no batt), 522g (w/ batt)
Nikon D40X - 471g (no batt), 522g (w/ batt)
Nikon D60 - 471g (no batt), 522g (w/batt)
Nikon D70s - 585g (no batt), 679g (w/ batt)
Nikon D80 - 595g (no batt), 668g (w/ batt)
Canon EOS 350D - 490g (no batt), 540g (w/ batt + CF)
Canon EOS 400D - 514g (no batt), 556g (w/ batt + CF)
Canon EOS 450D - 475g (no batt)
Olympus E-410 - 375g (no batt), 435g (w/ batt)
Sony A300 - 582g (no batt)
Sony A350 - 582g (no batt)
