Best low-cost digital SLR camera that accepts 35 mm lenses/filters?
I am a very amateur “picture taker”. I can’t use the word “photographer” because that would be well above my abilities. I currently own a very old digital camera. It is slow, no zoom, no focus and doesn’t take any other lenses. A photographer friend suggested one of the best entry level cameras for what I want is a Nikon D40. It is a camera under $600 with a good lens and accepts most 35 mm lenses and filters. It also has a good balance of automatic and manual settings.
My problem is I’m just not ready to spend $600 at this time.
I have seen other cameras, such as the Canon 6 MP that is $200 less, but don’t have alot of specs on it.
Is it worth $600 for the Nikon, or can I get a better value and features with another digital camera?
I’m an amateur picture taker as well, my brother’s gf sold me her nikon cool pics…. (I’m at work and forget the number) but it works great for the kind of things I like to do.
