Which SLR is better?

[Klose]

Oh man, you don't know what you just missed. I just saw and held that Pentax in my hands (I bought a 50mm lens from the same seller ), it's in like brand new condition, and seems works great too. Pity it's been bought by another guy.

Anyway, as for the other two, I don't have any comment. Hope others can help you out.

Good luck!

a good opportunity wasted :think:

I had tried Minolta Dynax 5 and EOS 300 (same range)

I like both for different reasons. In the end I chose Canon as my friends are using it and more lenses in 2nd hand market compare to Minolta.

So for the Price range of $300.... go for the above 2 rather than nikon f55/60/65.

And yah.... get the 50mm ... cheapest prime to play around with.

the price range I mention is 2nd hand price. Sorry to mislead you.

Watch out in Buy and Sell forum for the eos300.

Dynax5 hard to come by:
1) Owner not willing to sell since it's so good or
2) less people with minolta slr.

EOS300V, Dynax 5, F75 S$700 to S$900 brand new. They all come with kit lenses.
