That's why i want to try new things. Well if my saving isn't enough to bought me an SLR i've considered to buy a compact like the ones on the post. btw, Great Pictures Tim!, I love the color combination and the place. My compact was great too ($140), from the time i bought it up until now i’ve taken around 5000+ pics :P so u could say that i’ve worn out with my compact :D there’s a lot of great moment that i miss because of the result was too blur or too dark. i’ve tried everything, with flash on, with ISO setting to 400 and a number of configuration.

It's terrible in low light, but it takes great pictures and was damn cheap - its a compact after all. My picture up there was taken with Sony Cybershot DSCW1.

What i had in mind is Canon 400D but the lens is so standard (from what i've read), so while looking for a camera, i also looks for a good lenses.

If an SLR and its lenses are too bulky to carry around, get a compact. I own a G9 and i really like it - but it's hard to get great results with iso400+. but i still think it is one of the best compact cameras you can get. have a look at www.flickr.com you can search for photos by camera type http://www.flickr.com/cameras/canon/powershot_g9/ http://www.flickr.com/cameras/olympus/e510/ if you’re worried about iso400+ noise, get an SLR.

And what makes my self really want an SLR camera is every time i open flickr page, i see a really beautiful pictures that takes my breath away, to me that is an art craft. i want to be able to create something like that. I know i really really have to learn a lot but i think this is my chance to learn it while i have the resources. There are two things on my mind when i'm planning to buy a new camera, first i must have friends with an experienced ones and i have to learn photoshop even more intense. thx for the kind advice mmm last year i bought Canon Powershot A530 and dissatisfied with the result (although my friends loves my work), I tried almost a year to learn a lot with it but the limitation of the camera itself forbid me from learning so far.

The expensive SLR-like cameras are no better at noise reduction than the cheap point-and-shoots because they all use over-pixeled tiny-sensors, that's why their body & lenses (and prices) are so small.
