Cannot choose more than 1...

I find having a 'large & bright viewfinder' important.

Then 'Good Ergonomics, Handling & Control' is important too.

Then i like a 'Large and bright LCD' too. Finally 'High Frame-Per-Second (FPS)' is also good, but of course on this i dun have much of a choice, if i only can afford an entry level dSLR, i cannot list this as a priority looking at 1 tat can do 8.5 fps...

- It must be (look) big. Make ppl think u are really a "pro". :D

- No silvery surfaces. See point above.

- It must have a LOUD mirror slap/shutter sound and/or sound like a GPMG at full blast

- It must be able to dent any surface it hits on :bsmilie:
 

I think one important aspect of the selection is the lenses.
I have a considerable investment in Nikkor lenses, and this becomes prohibitive of me leaving the Nikon community to switch to another brand like Canon (of course I could go to Fuji, but it wasnt really an option for me).

Focus accuracy and consistency
Accurate WB settings
Manageable Raw file sizes with accurate image details
Near Immediate Shutter Response
Near Immediate focus speed
 

You forgot : low cost. My #1 factor. That's why I bought a used 300D :p Great value for money.

Now I know why you choose your current cam :think: :sweat:
 

before it is FF and 100% view finder,

now is, must be able to change to colorful casing, like nokia handphone.:heart: :bsmilie:
 

And what about what we don't want in a dSLR? Like higher Mp count which results in high ISO noise? For me, 6Mp is more than enough for amateur use.
 

good handling and bright view finder

In addition to those I voted, responsive and accurate AF, low shutter lag, long battery life, low mirror vibration and F-mount.
