Interested in my first DSLR, help please.
Hi guys, I've been a member here for years but have never ventured into this forum. I want to get a DSLR and learn some better photography. I was looking into the Nikon D40 as I want to be less than $500 on a camera. I noticed that not all deals ($335 for the D40) include lenses.
I have no experience outside of point and shoot, so this will be a learning experience, but also I want it to still keep me entertained. In other words, I don't want to buy a camera that I am going to want to replace in 3 months.
Are there other options I should look at?
Is the D40 not a good camera? (it looks half the size of most DSLR)
Where can I get the best price? Best buy is 499
How do I know when it doesn't come with a lens, and which lens (there seem to be a couple different options) is the one to get?
THANK YOU if you reply!
