Parv said:^^ I think still you may like to get 1000D instead of D3000.
thetechmind said:yep +1, i did more of reading and the 1000D comes out better than the D1000....only thing is i would have to spend more on the IS lens. Currently I'm looking out for a dealer who can sell me body only and then I can just purchase the stock IS lens separately. which is additional 2.5k
I remember many people getting the Canon 1000D off ebay. Can anyone help me by asking the dealer from where they got it if they would sell body only separately + is lens. or the cam bundled with the is lens.
pls assist. thanks in advance.
ive got a rate of rs.19500 for the 1000d body only. the other rate i have received is for 26,000rs. with IS lens, the old lens will be taken away as buy back.
please assist! thank you all in advance.
BF1983 said:Yup in pure IQ, Canon comes on top. Better high ISO noise and arguably better support in India at least.
However Nikon does have a few + points. A better grip and most importanty a much better viewfinder. The Canon 1000D has a dull, dark and really small viewfinder. IMO a brighter viewfinder is better than slightly better IQ as whatever IQ advantages Canon has will not be noticeable in any normal print sizes.
But then again, cheap old Nikon lenses will not AF on the D3000 so there goes another advantage to Canon
Parv said:@thetechmind: I and zhopudey bought it from customer.shop when this was in deal of the week, so it had imi options also.
Seller replaced the kit lens with IS kit lens for additional 2k on request. So probably you can ask him.
PM me in case you want his contact no.
I would also be interested in the EMI option details...thetechmind said:@parv :
yep , i missed that opportunity for sure. where is the dealer located ? it would be really nice if you could personally have a word with the seller since u have bought something off him recently , he would be more likely to talk to u , than me considering as "just another inquiry".....:no: :ashamed:, if u could ask him the queries i have and also if he can put up the thread with the emi option it would be just perfect.....i clearly remember seeing a thread last week for 23k with standard non is lens with the emi option, today i checked it wasnt there, dont remember the seller though.
do pm me the details as well......pls let me know....
