I know I can take a regular camera but would like to know if I can take my Nikon digital SLR to the Ozomatli concert.

been there a few times and i know when i saw dillinger escape plan, zao, a life once lost, unearth they wouldnt let you. i guess as long as they dont see it theres no harm done. i got into a fight at that venue.

I am 15 years old and am becoming more and more into photography daily. I have multiple friends with DSLR’s. I am going to be taking a photography class at school next semester and it is a requirement to have your own. I have a pretty tight budget. I’m hoping to find something for under $480. I’m currently sold on the Nikon D40. I’ve read tons of reviews claiming that it is the best and one of the cheapest for beginners. I’ve also concluded that the stock lens on it, which is a 18-55mm(non VL), is pretty decent. I would eventually buy another lens or two for it. Any comments or words of advice would be greatly appreciated(: Thanks!
Alright so I’m really split between the D40 and the D3000 at this point. The D3000 is looking better with the 10mp compared to the D40’s 6mp. Plus its nearly the same price! Am I making the right decision?

I would recommend you Nikon D3000 Digital SLR Camera 
10.2megapixel CCD sensor,11-point autofocus system, Fast response,Guide mode,3-inch TFT, 3 fps continuous shooting allows you to capture fast-moving action at 3 frames per second

I am looking to get a digital slr camera eventually here (within the next six months). I don’t want a way way way expensive one, but I would really like a middle of the road slr camera. So any help is appreciated. I have used my mothers Nikon and it is "ok" just looking for other opinions.

Let this be a starting place for your research.

Then, here’s a site with very detailed reviews and comparisions of digital cameras.

I hope this is helpful for you.

i’m doing a report on how dslr photography changed the world so if you have any other useful information please share. thanks!
Yes, I was going to say there was some Canon Kodak hybrid work, but the D30 was the "real" first Canon DSLR. I never bought that, but I do have their second DSLR, the D60. The 6 megapixels was an unheard of high number in the day. Other cameras typically had nothing higher than 3 MP, many only with 1.5 or 2 MP.

Where can I purchase the Pentax K-x 12.4 MP Digital SLR the cheapest & receive it the quickest?

I listed 3 links below that should take you right to the page listing the Pentax K-x options from each.

The going rate is $550 or a bit less and it is common to get free shipping.

As of a few seconds ago here are the prices I have seen:

Pentax K-x 12MP DSLR with 18-55mm Zoom - $538.95 plus free shipping (B&H Photo)

Pentax K-x 12MP DSLR with 18-55mm Zoom - $525 (Amazon)

Pentax K-x 12MP DSLR with 18-55mm Zoom - $549 (Adorama)

Pentax K-x 12MP DSLR with 18-55mm Zoom - $535 plus free shipping (BuyDig)

One last note of interest, in some cases a different color can be a different price, for example, I noticed that BuyDig has the Pentax in blue color for $519 while the black finish cost $535.

If you post some results from your this camera, please feel free to e-mail me, I would love to see the results.

Hope this helps.

It’s not the memory card - happens with every card I’ve tried, and it doesn’t always happen. The lines don’t just appear of the lcd screen but are actually on the picture. Is something misaligned? any ideas?
My sister did hit my camera pretty hard, but I don’t think the colors started appearing until a while after.
EXAMPLE:

Well, first off, your picture is set to either private or friends or family, so that link is no good.

I would say though, based on what you have said, that the sensor in the camera has become misaligned or damaged. Send it in for repairs

I am trying to find a good 50mm lens for my Digital Rebel and see that the film Canon SLR lenses are much cheaper.

Any of the Canon EF and EF-S lenses will work with your Rebel DSLR.

What will NOT work are EF-S lenses on the 1D and 5D series Canon DSLR’s or Canon EOS 35 mm SLR’s

NONE of the Canon FD or older FL lenses are usable with the EOS cameras

Is Pentax *istDL 6.1MP Digital SLR Camera any good? I’m trying to buy an inexpensive slr digital camera on ebay and time is running out so i was hoping for some oppinions? anyone have one? or have a pentax or maybe dislike them? im a little clueless

Below some links, the first two directly relate to the Pentax *istDL 6.1MP DSLR with the second being responses from over 60 owners of the camera. I also added some links to some photo dealers and some them sell used as well as new equipment.

Hope this helps.

Is there a difference between the "EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens" and the "EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 II Lens" ??? I know the only difference in the title is the " II " in the second, but they have the exact same name otherwise and look identical.

Please someone with experience answer, if I buy the wrong one for my Canon Digital Rebel XTi it would be a very expensive mistake lol.

They’ll both work on your XTi. I’d suggest going with the one that has IS (image stabilization). IS helps reduce blurriness that’s caused by camera shake.
