Nikon D100- Digital SLR Camera

Anyone have it? I am looking to get a really good camera but not spend more then $1,000 and so far this one seems to be getting good reviews. I have an old Nikon at home (35mm) that I won on ebay a few years back and I really love it so I was planning on sticking with Nikon. I am open to suggestions of other brands.
Thanks!!! Chat Icon

I just got a Nikon D40x and love it. I got a package at Cameta Camera and it came with 2 lenses (18-55 & 55-200) and with tax and the extended warranty it was right around $1000.

Re: Nikon D100- Digital SLR Camera

If you want to spend 1k on a camera, I would go with a Nikon D80. Def more camera! you will never have to buy another camera!

Check out ebay. there are some reputable sellers selling really good packages for 1k which include the body, 1-2 lenses, wide angle lens and a 4g memory card, amother other things like batteries, ipods and stuff

Oh this is great! I did see the D40 and 80 as well. Someone in the photography class I am taking next month has the D100 so I looked into that one. I have to check ebay to see if I can get a great package like that. Thanks a lot!!!
I would really love to see these in person...who do you think would carry them???
Thanks again!!!

Check out dpreview.com for ratings...

I just got the Canon 40D and it's awesome. I would recommend the 30D as it's right in your budget. Both cameras are highly recommended by users on amazon.com and dpreview.com.

The Canon Rebel is also great too and also in your price range. I know you wanted the Nikon but the Canon and Nikon are both great. I prefer Canon 'cus the 30 and 40D are unbeatable and handles better than a Nikon.

Re: Nikon D100- Digital SLR Camera

I got my D40x about 1 month ago. My other choice would have been the D80 but it was too much camera/price for me.

I love my D40x.
