D50, 350D, or P&S
Hi;
After ahving Fujifilm 2800 for 4 years, and being frustrated by its low light performance, speed, flash, and lack of controls I have decided to move one step up. My usage is general indoor and outdoor, some nature, mainly family occasion (indoor, with and without flash) and some portrait. The low noise and speed od DSLRs is attarctive to me but if I choose a DSLR I will use it with a single zoom lens, I will not be carrying multiple lenses around. I cannot choose between Canon 350D and Nikon D50 (or a good P&S). From the reviews it seems D50 has better noise characteristics but 350D has higer resolution and is sharper. The kit lens of D50 seems better than that of 350D. If I go with d50 probably I will go with the 18-70 zoom that is standatd on D70. I would appreciate sharing your experience and thoughts. My case agains most P&S's is their high noise level and speed, but if there are good candidates, I will consider them. Thanks Far |

You might also want to ask in rec.photo.digital.slr-systems and rec.photo.digital.zlr which deal with SLR and high-end non-SLR digital cameras. I know that for me the size, weight and cost of the DSLR system are difficult to justify when compared against the capabilities of, for example, the Panasonic FZ5 or Nikon Coolpix 8400. David |

Per Ting,
have a look at http://www.dpreview.com/ where you will find many informations. The newly offered Panasonic FZ 30 might be worth a perusal. Regards, Guenter "Per Ting" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...
