            A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

              • Hey guys,

                Im planning for an DSLR around 25k...

                My photography interests mostly lie in protraits and macros (only occasional landscapes)... And i try to avoid post processing as much as possible...

                Looking for suggestions and I plan to buy it before end of the year...

                PS: I don't mind streching the budget a bit if the reasons are compelling...
                I like 'em Naked

                Blah Blah Blah!

                        No... I had a canon powershot 3.2MP (it had decent manual options) but was looking for some suggestions so that I can compare reviews on those... Right now i am clueless on which models to look at (and which are available here)...
                        I was planning on Canon or Nikon but i am open to others if they are good vfm...

                          i would suggest nikon d3100 (cost ~31-33k). i got myself one few weeks ago. Image quality is superb, decent peroformance at high ISO settings, you may confirm it from reviews . But its missing few common features like auto-bracketing, DOF preview, & has a low resolution lcd.

                          video is also its plus point (auto-focus during video is crap though), but i believe few will care about videos

                            Its a bit out of reach yaar... Nothing available around 25k? I don't care much for video quality...

                              around 25k, canon 1000D (22.k5) and nikon D3000(25.5k last time i checked) are available. I Don't have idea about other brands like sony etc.

                              But still i would suggest you save a bit and get a better one as these two are entry level dslr's and missing many features that you may regret latter.
                              also note that nikon D3100 prices are likely to drop (or may have already dropped) in few months time as it is new now, launched just last month in India.

                              in 30-35k range, canon 500D, nikon D5000 and nikon D3100 are available. image quality wise D3100 is the best among these as far as i know.
