Dear all, Thinking of taking up photography course. Seriously considering between yours and that by PSS. Need to ask a few questions: 1. Compared to PSS, why is your price higher? 2. You mentioned that we need a camera for full manual control. If I do not wish to get one just for the...

Oops...sorry didn't see this is a Canon forum....Will post in Nikon forum then...

Sorry to intrude into this thread, but as I read, all the above shops have good and bad points. Some say go shop A, some say shop A suck... Really confused.. I am a newbie, just came back to SG after a 2-month absence, and I want to buy a D70 kit. Where is a reputable shop to go? And look for...

Does Leica make DSLRs?? Worth to find out.

I have read all the reviews... All 3 systems seem pretty good. But, I am leaning towards Nikon as I think the D70 and the 18-70 lens are pretty cool (black with gold). I know I shouldn't just be looking at outward appearances, but... hey... if I'm gonna spend couple of thousand bucks, the camera...
