"Nice" Camera Recommendation

[scotty138]

I have an older Canon Rebel and I love it. I don't do a lot of photography, but it's so nice to have a good camera with larger file sizes for pictures you want to print. The nice part about a SLR is that you can upgrade your camera base but still use any lenses that you have (assuming you use a base from the same company). I am actually looking to upgrade my camera base soon because mine is several years old. I have also heard nice things about Nikon, but I had a point and shoot Nikon that ate batteries like crazy and that turned me towards the Canon.

Are you by chance a Costco member, or know someone who is? You can get a good Cannon Rebel with accessories there. It is about $600. DH did a good bit of research when he first wanted an SLR, and that was the best deal.

I haven't yet!  Thanks!!

I have been looking at some of the packages on Amazon but am so confused by the lenses that they come with.  I keep reading and have had a couple photog friends say that I should get a 50-mm/f1.8 lens.  Well none of the packages on Amazon come with that lens and seems like I would have to buy it separate.

I feel like I am still just as overwhelmed but now with lenses ha ha.  I feel like I am for sure going to go with the Rebel 

I wouldn't know the difference, but this one says it comes with 18-55 mm lens and 75-300 mm lens.
