Love all the armchair photography experts in the live feed.

[Ilopsen]

I find the quality of this video ironic. Anyone?

[salvyboyx3]

@Ilopsen Then again this was made in 08'

[micmoable]

I hear that the CMOS sensor is a really good sensor and some Kodak models have that sensor and can really do justice to low light images

[tratdall]

please answer! im wanting to get into skate photography, and i was wandering do you have to have a lense to take pics or can you use the body, then buy a lense? probably a dumb question.

[WATSONMUTH]

90% of dslr owners are idiots especially people who comment on YouTube videos (not you Chris )

[aceraspire4738ZG]

do you know how to read overacting man?

[aleksandersandstrom]

DO ONLY BUY canon or nikon. they are the biggest brand and got the best lenses and pro cameras, for amature could a pentax or sony or whatever be better but if you wnat to upgrade and acctually go somewere with your photography. ones you have chosen a brand you also want to stick with it.

[CORYSPHOTOS]

@aleksandersandstrom What the hell are you "saying"/typing?

[aleksandersandstrom]

@CORYSPHOTOS thats if you want to learn photography you should get canon or nikon, though they got better cameras, when you go up in price...

[CORYSPHOTOS]

@aleksandersandstrom 

thanks for clarifying.

[baggens55]

You have really useful videos

[goodnewsusa]

Did you just say the zoom lens for Nikkon and Canon are interchangeable? I was looking at buying one of the two and the zoom lens attachments were going to be bought after wards as I get more money over time.

[icecreamcakeandpiex]

You fallin asleep Ponzy?

[gta1172]

For beginers Pentax K-X

[BreakPics]

canon 550d for beginners! hahahaha

[Micha499]

The Nikon D3000 is too easy to use. After a few weeks when you've learned how it works, its just to slow.

[GoingSkateboarding]

okay, so you mentioned that you should choose a battery that better suites you. but you can purchase battery grips that can hold double a batteries and/or lithium ion batteries

[kingjowl]

cheers for this man.

[Manny1031]

can someone send me a link for a good website to buy cameras?

[speckyprick]

@Manny1031

No.

[vladimir2277]

@Manny1031: Google for research, eBay to buy

[djma26]

I have a sony cybershot but it doesn't get a good shot when it's dark or sometimes the picture is blurred! I'm interested in DSLR is it easy to use? and what is the brand of the camera that I will get?

Please someone reply ob me! I'm not a photographer, just want to take a good quality pic.

[TrunkOne]

Nikon D3000 is very easy to use

[TheJohnnyDanger]

Nikon D60 is a great camera for the money. And, you can usually still get it with a 18-55 lens...and 55-200 telephoto..

[xMandalorex]

Nikon D40 or D40 x if your on a budget !

or go sick and get the monster Nikon D90 or D5000

[quer94]

Canon EOS 450D

[fallenembers08]

as im saving for an SLR camera. i own a Sony H-10 and it takes superb quality photos both landscape (telephoto) and macro mode.

-aspiring photographer.

[LukeWratten]

What are you thinking of getting?

[fallenembers08]

well i messed around with a couple SLR cameras. ive decided to stick with a high quality advanced camera thats not a dslr/slr. ive decided on the new sony one, its like the Sony HX1.

[sajjadsalar]

hi guys. Actually i not much into photography but i was looking for a SLR to have sharp and good images. Although i can spend some ( not much) time to learn its features.. A friend of mine suggested me sony a200 SLR. Any of you have any idea about it cuz i m not a professional photographer but just want better images. Can anybody help? thnx

[devin6687]

I go Canon, cuz they have a better focusing array. I think that's one of the reasons pros pick the Canon. Canon's high-precision CT (cross-type) sensor goes down to ƒ2.8 while the Nikons only go down to ƒ5.6. That means the center CT sensor in the Canon's Rebel is potentially more precise than even the CT sensors in the Nikon D3, Nikon's flagship DSLR. Don't believe me? Go read the specs!

[thelastemperor909]

i wana get an SLR

[desijatt05]

unless your printing large..high megapixels is irrelevant

[dryan2]

its not irrelevant at all, its very important actually. The more MP a sensor has the smaller the pixels are. The smaller the pixels are, the more noise (grainy stuff) is introduced. This make shooting high ISO's very noisy, so low light performance is reduced. So, many times having more MP is actually bad. This is why companies are coming out w/ camera like the nikon d3/d700, canon 1ds mkIII/5dmk II/ and sony a900. These cameras are full-frame and have larger sensors, meaning bigger pixels :)

[Stuie801]

So do you think, getting a Cannon Rebel XSi (12.2 Megapixel) would be a bad choice then.

Or should i get the Cannon rebel XT (10.1) megapixels?

I've been using a point and shoot casio exilim (8.1 MP)

So i dont think i would want to go down from that.

[dryan2]

Well, they both create magnificent images, and the XT is 8 MP, so i believe your talking of either the XS or XTi .... Either way they are all great camera, and you just have to way up feature-set and price ......

[Stuie801]

Thanks man, i was still taking about the rebel XSi tho, and i was just worried about the pictures being too "noisy" i guess is the term for it. Like for night shots, at high ISO

It being a 12.2 megapixel and all

[astro1218]

nikon....

[wradn]

Not helping.

[23snowy23]

canon....

[imayhaduca]

if u guys noticed most of the photographers uses NIKON BRAND coz its the best brand i think... correct me if i am wrong. :)

[awkwarderic]

if u guys noticed most of the photographers uses CANON BRAND coz its the best brand :D

[christopherguindon]

yeah baby! Canon FTW (cant wait to get my Rebel XSi, as soon as it comes out!

[jeppwii]

its really not the brand.

[PCguy102]

cannon for SLRs and Fuji for point and shoot.

[cipher9190]

he covered up the apple logo with his big head?

[newyorkfish]

Canon seems to have loyal customers.

You can't use a Canon lens on another brand (and vise versa).

So before deciding on a Sony, Olympus, Panasonic, etc., know which brand you would be happy with.

[RickyTomatoes]

I hate it when people in the chat start spamming the URL...how cheesy.

[WillThePlank]

lol i need to get a new camera so handy tips
