+1000! Great site and I would also recommend Nikon or Canon. I'm biased towards Nikon because that's what I shoot and like. It's also what feels best to me in my hands. Like someone else already said. Go out to a few shops, pic them up,look at them,test them if possible, and choose what "feels" best to you and what you like the most. We can all tell you what we like and what works for us but, if it doesnt feel good for you and doesn't fit you then you probably won't like the results either. Just my .02![]()
