OK guys, I am nearly there on buying a camera Today I looked at the Canon 50D and the Nikon D90, they told me that both of these cameras are pretty similar, I liked the feel of both of these cameras compared to the Canon 550D they felt better in my hands. Now the Nikon is $400 cheaper than the Canon but the thing that is swaying me more I think is the fact that it has live view while the Canon doesn't, I don't know if this would annoy me with the Canon but I think it would, I have small dogs that I show and I don't want to have to lay on the ground on my belly to get pics of them, which I would have to do if I had to use the eye piece. SchnauzerBoy I see you recommend the Nikon D90 so that's good, what does everyone else think? Also I like the fact both cameras have the 6.4 fps continuous shoot thingy.

Thanks Tess, I rang all the other places where they sell cameras in my area, JB Hi Fi had is for $1590 but have none left, all the other places that had it in stock where the same price as HN, so looks like I might get it from there.

Thanks for the info guys I went to the Camera House today, (thanks Dodo, I forgot about them!) they are the same price as Harveys, he also told me about the Canon 500d, he said it has a better picture quality than the 550d even though its 15 mp, the 550d is 18 mp. I will check out JB and Wow, I didn't think of them! Harveys is appealing as it has 48 months interest free at the moment, but I don't trust them! Pawprints, that is a huge difference in price!! Firestone, I got your message, thanks heaps for that!! I will check out your pics on Facebook in a moment. Helen, thanks for that, I think the guy showed me one of those today. Kirislin, I haven't really looked online, i will do that to.

Thanks for the info Flaves, I will go to our local camera shop today and see what they have to say. I saw some pics that someone on here took of their dog with the double lense pack and they were great, so dont really know what the HM fella was on about!
-
What were the lenses you got with yours Firestone?? Maybe I would be better off going with the single more expensive lense then?

Thanks heaps for the replys guys!! I went into Harvey Norman today, they had the Canon 550D it had the two lenses, 18 - 55 mm and 55 - 250 mm, the guy said that the 550D comes with a 18 - 135 mm also, he said this is a much more superior lens, the price of the first with the twin lense is $1685 and for the second with the one lense is $2100, not sure if there is a huge difference in the lenses or if he is just trying to get more money out of me, being its Harvey Norman and all. I will go the camera shop next time I am in town and see what price they have on it to. Went to Joyce Mayne also, the guy there was totally useless, said he thought they might be getting those cameras in but had no idea how much they were going to be and that he wouldn't be able to find out for me

I am looking to buy an SLR. I have had for the past 5 years a Kodak EasyShare Z740, for about 15 years before that I had a Ricoh KR-5 SuperII, the old Ricoh was completely manual and film of course, I do miss the fact that I could have more control over the photos the I took. I am thinking of buying a Canon EOS 550D, I will have my SLR back and manual controls but still have the ability to just use it as a point and shoot also. I have been told that Nikon is a great camera, but am leaning towards the Canon as I have seen a lot of pics take by people of dogs etc that use Canon and have been really impressed. I will be mainly using the camera for dogs and kids. Also I am planning on doing a photography course at TAFE, so don't mind having something that is quite advanced and that has features on it, would like to do some amateur photography. Any info would be great!!
