What he said. Definatly buy an SLR and stay away from a Fixed EVF camera. I’d personally go with the Canon Rebel XT. Its a great entry level D-SLR and in the same price range as the D50. I’ve used both of them and i find the Canon easier to use if you’re just starting out. Plus its an 8 megapixel camera so thats plenty to work with. If you really get into photography, make it a point to get into film. Its much better than digital IMO.
