photography is what i love - I use my sister's Canon DLSR Rebel TX or plainly Canon 300D to take some pictures. I mostly use a plain Kodak digital camera, but unfortunately my other sister lost it in her trip to Manila. So im left with borrowing my sister's camera. Its a great camera to work with. It takes such vivid clear images. But the only thing i don't like about it is that you can't carry it easily around. It's tough especially if you're a girl and your bringing a huge expensive camera around streets filled with people. You never know who or what you run into. And you might even get scammed. And well.. bye bye camera. But it's worth purchasing a camera like this. I definitely recommend to whoever would like to buy one, but i would also highly recommend Nikon ( im not biased or anything). I heard its the best because they use glass lens ( i just heard it from someone, don't know if it's true). But Nikon is still a good brand, so is Canon. If you want to purchase one i have a friend who is a Canon dealer.
