What do you think the best DSLR camera is? Just cause Amazon users want it doesn’t mean the best.Do you think DSLR cameras are worth the price? This site lists some info [link not working] but looking for other opinions. Thoughts? Thanks
John,
There are many opinions out there about which the best dSLR could be. In my way of thinking, however, there is no such thing. There is only
a) What you need, and
b) What you can afford
I believe that this list is a combination of both these factors, along with a dash of ‘aspiration’. To me, it is a list of cameras that people want to own, and if they have the money, will.
I hope that this is a guiding principle for some, when they decide to buy their cameras, and not ‘Megapixels’.
