Author: murkris you cannot go wrong with this unless you don't know how to take pictures. Definitely not for starters. Great camera for a great price.

@Tribal & @Dennis_Young - i got the Canon XSi. CNET.com reviews had it comparable to the Nikon D80 (which was too much for me)

@mburleson I took a Nikon D80 into a "no camera" event at the Ford Center once and all went well. It may just depend on the artist and venue

@atomac Oh, and if you're considering Nikon you should get the D80 over the D60. If that's hard stretch, you might look at the D40 as well.
