    Cos the 3 cameras in his 1st post is below $300 and I presume his budget is ard there.... Yes the F80 is a great camera from which the only thing bugging me is that why it does not have a shutter release for its vertical grip (which is more like a battery pack thats all) If I recall...

    Minimum Shutter Based on Focal Length

    No no no... (Frankly I cant blame you for thinking that way...cos I did thought it was that way once... :P) The View you see Thru the viewfinder of the DSLR is ALREADY CROPPED. (I think somehow the either the pentaprism/mirror might have cropped the view from in from the lens before it...

    Which SLR is better?

    I will suggest a least a F75 or Canon's EOS 300 Brand new with kit lens ard $700, but a 2nd hand one shld be less than $500 Or a 2nd hand FM2 (last I heard was ard $400) for something more "traditional" Cos the F75 can support new-er lenses from Nikon's inventory, such as G-lenses, or...

    Minimum Shutter Based on Focal Length

    Mono = one Tri = three Tri-pod = 3 legged Mono-pod = 1 Legged Its a 1 legged camera stand, meant to hold the weight of the camera and lenses so that the photographer can shoot with more "steady hands" so to speak "Steady hands" refers the avoidance of camera shake at lower shutter speeds.

    Minimum Shutter Based on Focal Length

    Actually its NO at 125mm, the min shutter to avoid shake is 1/125, the "cropping idea" behind the DSLR...is that the sensor only takes a "portion" of this Full frame 125mm pic. in the case of Nikon this translates to only 2/3 of the orinigal image size. so 2/3 x ? = 1 Where 1 = a full...
