Hi,

I know this question has been asked many times, but still

can the photoholics over here suggest a good entry level DSLR...

1) Any brand..i have no bias
2) 99 % nature photography
3) Below 30K
4) Lenses should be easily and if possible should be available cheaply.
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

I am coming over to banglore next week can any TE friends over there help me out buying a DSLR ?
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

^^^Search for phone number of Jayesh Mehta over net.

SMS him model numbers you need quotes for.

Decide, and then go there next day and get the stuff :).

Take grey if you understand what you are taking else 1000D with kit lens is good to get your feet wet.

Cu,
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

Canon 1000D or Canon 450D.

what kind of nature photography? landscapes? or wildlife? or macro?
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

his no is 9845022654, call and go to him, dont worry he wont con u, so u can go and buy with peace, only thing is bargain u have to cry a bit :)

but is till say skip 1000d and go directly to 450D irrespective to whatever u plan to shoot.
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

What is the approximate price of 450D that i can expect from Jayesh,

Also assuming i get it from gray, and it goes kaput, is there any way to repair it by paying money at canon service centre ? or as a matter of fact any other place ?
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

i dunno the price man,
if u buy grey, u can still get it serviced from canon, tis considered as non warranty item. u wont have problems with that..its a bit expensive(1000 bucks only for cmos clearing), but since slr as precision devices its better to go to them than else where

as per the prices, i assure u jayesh will be cheaper than other place especially in bangalore!

canon 450D + with IS kit lens, u should be able to get grey!

are u sure its 450D and not 400d,under 30k sounds good.
any idea how much is canon 500d or nikon D5000 in the grey market.
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

@Adder, 500D is around 36K in grey. No idea about D5000.

And yes it is 450D. In grey about 30500 to be precise.

I bought a DSLR recently and inquired about prices with him.
 
Re: suggest a entry level DSLR..

Yeh 450D is a far better option than 1000D..

Nikon D5000 with lens is around ~37k in gray..

I think it is better to grab 450D instead of 1000D or D3000

Or go for 500D or D5000 if U plan to expand ur budget..
