Hey guys,
well im sick of going herping (looking for reptiles) with my point and shoot lately as its useless, as it only allows me to get close and than the reptile runs away and the pictures usually come out bad anyway
so ive decided to get a DLSR before christmas
im looking for a camera + lens that will be about $1500 all up
so far ive been thinking a Canon 550D or a Nikon D5000 ... also want to get some ok videos with it
can anyone else recommend any cameras or lens (lens to be about $400)
i mainly want to take good macro photos that are clear like this - http://www.flickr.com/photos/stephen...in/photostream (one of my mates pics, he has a really expensive camera though)
if anyone could help it would be awesome, so yeah mainly want a camera that will take good pics of reptiles and bugs
Nick
