Camera?
-
For a really good point and shoot I'd go with the Canon SX10 IS. I have the S3 IS and love it. Lots of zoom and some good features without getting into the ballerness of a SLR.

if your just getting a digital camera for your wife or whatever, you dont need anything fancy. just get something easy, small, and the more mega pixels the better.
something like what Rexwagon has...None of that shit bASSplayer and faghasaids is taking about, they just like spewing out expensive camera names to make them feel like they know what they are talking about.

We already have a canon 750 and we are pretty bored with it.so we would like to spend a little money on a good upgrade that we can have a little fun with bit we dont know where to start.That D40 dosent look too bad but again we dont know where to start.

There is almost always a good deal in this thread.
http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2399442As far as getting started, get on a photography forum or take a photography class if you can. Also read the manual that comes with the camera right away. It is a good way to pick up on the different features of the camera and how to properly use them. I think the D40 or XTi would be a good choice (the XTi is only getting cheaper now that the XSi is out.)

My parent's just bought a D60 + 55-200 lens at best buy on Friday...sounds like it was a pretty good deal. No idea if it's nice cuz they haven't taken it out of the box yet though.

I like Nikon, however when it came to price, features and just taking good pictures. (price per megapixel mainly) it came down to the fact that i had about 5 to 6 hundred dollars to spend on a dslr, so the choice for me was between the Nikon D40 and the Sony alpha 200, the Nikon being 499, and having 8 megapixlels? or close to it. and the Sony being 500 and having 10.2 megapixels, i went with the Sony. The real nice thing with the Sony is you can have full manual control like an slr should be, but the automatic setting are very similar to a sony point and shoot camera, so if you are familiar with a sony point and shoot and you dont want to deal with the slr settings it is still a nice camera that takes really nice pictures. Here are a few that i took one night outta boredom.http://fargostreet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14804:icon_salut:

But seriously its not all about mega pixels, but with they type of camera style rexwagon is talking about (aka the type he should get) around 10 is perfect.No, the advice you're missing is: megapixels don't mean dick without good glass. If you get kit glass you may as well be shooting with 6MP

I have lenses that cost more than the camera.......
The thing still out shoots me which is why I haven't upgraded to anything "current" yet. I'm a firm believer in the Canon camp. My recommendation for a noob is XTi/XSi with battery grip and an assortment of glass. Go from there.

They are small but with a grip they are alot more usable.
