Advantages: Its price Disadvantages: lack of compatibility
Let's see, the Nikon D40 is not bad. Not bad, if you want to take pictures in very fond plan and you do not want to spend too much money. The benefits are fair, neither more nor less. The same you can bring a digital compact that will cost 300, with the only difference being a reflex goal interchangeable. The major disadvantages, for my taste are: of course, and as happens in almost all new cameras, the lack of partial compatibility with the "old" ... ...The strange thing is that Nikon did this because as it has always been characterized to give maximum compatibility with all their cameras and accessories, but good, everything changes. The objectives asserting worth, because the saddle remains the same, but the autofocus does not work and metering only in some cases. With flashes exactly the same thing happens. The measurement, depending on what sometimes is not effective and have to do manually. ...

Advantages: Takes pictures quickly, great quality pictures, very versatile, easy for beginners. Disadvantages: To take full advantage of its features, you need good photography knowledge.
An amazing product. This truly puts in your hands a camera capable of taking almost any shot. Some photography knowledge is very helpful to use it to its full extent. However, even if you are a novice, it has some very nice features that allow you to take excellent pictures, without breaking a sweat. Also, the view box is nice and big, plenty of pixels to show you all the details and gives you a pretty good idea of what the picture looks like.
Overall, ... ...I have 4 kids and each one of them are adorable. And I can snap and take pictures quickly, if I don't like it, it takes 2 seconds to erase and take again. No appreciable lag time from picture to picture, like many other digital cameras. LOVE IT! ...

Advantages: Unique Mechanism, Auto Focus Improvements Disadvantages: Still Expensive
Sony with the high brand level launch alpha DSLR-A350 with a unique mechanism that no one has yet tried, drawing an image from inside the optical viewfinder with a special tilting mirror. Like the A200 Sony make improvements to alpha-A350 AF have made focus acquisition 1.7 times faster, thanks to the high-torque AF motor and improved AF sequence borrowed from the A700. Autofocus in Live View is also as fast as it is in optical viewfinder mode, a ... ...With that description above make Sony A350 as a semi-pro camera. Not a bad thing, because it shows that the housing and appearance of the camera give you a good feeling, certainly with the Carl Zeiss lens mounted on the camera but If you need the resolution bump at a low price, the Rebel XSi is probably a better choice than the Sony Alpha DSLR-A350. ...

Advantages: superb image quality, live view, light weight Disadvantages: plasticky feel, could use better weathersealing
...the same footing as the Canon 40D, except for the weathersealing and frame rate. (3.5fps/vs 6.5 (40D). Image quality is superb and is 12 megapixels which allows plenty room for cropping. The XSI allows allows Live View which allows Autofocus (but slow) vs the 40D which has Live View but cannot AF in it. The other cameras that the XSI competes with would be the Nikon D60 and Olympus E-420. The E-420 is smaller, and has more problems with Noise at ... ...1) someone who already has Canon Lenses and wants to keep the Canon-body to keep their lens investment.
2) First time DSLR buyer who is attracted to Canon - go into the store and compare against the Nikon D60 and see which feels better for you.
3) Buyer who is looking for a camera with Live View capability so they can see how the image looks on the LCD screen in addition to looking through a viewfinder.
For a comparative summary of this camera, ...

Advantages: Great vibrant photos Disadvantages: moderately priced
I am a fine artist who uses the Rebel XTI to shoot photographs of my large scale paintings. The color and overall contrast of each image is superb. I then upload the images into photoshop and make size adjustments and rarely have to make color corrections. It is a great camera and worth every penny. This camera also adjusts very well to different lighting situations that would otherwise distort and over expose an image. I guess one of the nicest ...
