Well, I was planning to buy one maybe by May or June after I recuperate from the expenses I made and will make on my vacation come April. It was supposed to be a late birthday gift for myself (March 6) but then some extra cash came up. I was not expecting a bonus this year because of the financial crisis not just our company faced but globally. It was much less than what we usually get (compared to my first 2 years) but still any amount is welcome!
So last night and today I searched for newbie friendly DSLR and found this list
Canon Rebel T3i
Canon Rebel T2i
Nikon 3100
Nikon 3000
Pentax K-x
Sony Alpha SLT-A55
Olympus E-520
Which one is the best pick? Need inputs on cost vs function.
