    Suggest a laptop for office work and OTT entertainment. Up to 65k

    Thank you for the suggestions. I liked the slim 5 11th gen i5. However, I'm still pondering if the cost justifies the usage at 67k. What about ThinkPads? Are they any good? I hear they're rugged and last for long.

    Suggest a laptop for office work and OTT entertainment. Up to 65k

    1) What is your budget? INR 65,000 2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer? Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen. 14" okay too as a last resort. Weight & form factor not much of a concern as laptop would mostly be stationary. 3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing...

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Thanks. I wasn't aware of that. But like I said, I'm not too worried about warranty at this point. I've been maintaining the camera well. I believe I can do so for some a couple more months :)

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    I didn't bother to check it. Although I did get the warranty cards and booklet, they are all empty while they are supposed to be stamped by the seller. If need be, I can contact the seller directly and get it filled I suppose. But I got tied up with a couple of things and didn't follow through...

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Don't think I'll be updating it myself anytime soon. Nothing in the changelog is of pressing importance. I might get it done if I pay a visit to the service center for warranty verification. Thanks for the info.

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Yup, gonna probably take a trip to hampi and try to get some pictures. Or maybe Cubbon Park if I feel lazy. The view near my house is one big concrete mess. Also, any significant boost the new firmware gives? I don't want to fiddle with the software until I'm quite comfortable with it.

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Yup. I'm going to have a pair of scissors handy as soon as the courier guy calls. I hope I don't end up scaring the poor chap. Hah. Also, you managed to find it at the lowest price I have ever seen for this cam. Your luck is godly. - - - Updated - - - Finally, got it. Just under 2 days for...

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Finally ordered a D5200 + LCD screen guard at 25.7k from Amazon after some constant price checking. My only concern right now is if I'm going to get all the accessories + the warranty. I hope I don't end up getting bricks instead of the camera like some customers. :D

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    This is amusing. The price now has surpassed even what Fotocircle quoted me. I think I'll bite the bullet and order from Flipkart. At least I can return the product if it's not eligible for a warranty. Also, I get a free cam bag and class 10 memory card from FK at 25.5k as compared to no goodies...

    Where are you guys seeing the 25k price? It still shows as 27999 for me. I'm looking at the body + 18-55 kit lens combo product.

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    I'm sticking with Amazon as I didn't see any warranty complaints from Amazon sellers. On the contrary, a lot of warranty issues on Flipkart for the D5200. Happened the same with my 45k laptop from Flipkart. I was supposed to get a 3 year warranty. But WS Retail screwed me over. Since then, I...

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Yeah, that's the idea. Will do. Fotocircle at Anand Rao Circle (Bangalore) quoted me 29k while Amazon has it currently at 28k. I heard shops provide good deals, but it doesn't look like it.

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Ah sorry for the delay in update. I wanted to go with D5200. But by the time I tried ordered it, the price had shot up by nearly 4k out of my budget. So, I had to put off the plan of buying it temporarily. I checked around a couple of places and they still are quoting me around 28 to 29k. I've...

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    No, I didn't mean Canon isn't good. The fault could be from the seller. If you read through the 1, 2 or 3 star reviews, you will find a lot of complaints about warranty, lens & bag quality issues. This is for the 1200D. Also, some users complaining about the build quality of this cam. One said...

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Yes it comes with dual lens, but a lot of complaints regarding the lens, warranty & accessories. If I can get some peace of mind with a good cam & single lens, I'll settle for that over a 1200D with a risk of problems. I'm reading the reviews on Amazon India, by the way, if it helps.

    Seems reasonable. I'll wait for other opinions as well if you don't mind. Thank you.

    Do you mind telling me why? I'd like to know the pros & cons from a user perspective rather than me just reading up on some articles filled with affiliate links :)

    [URGENT] DSLR under 25k - Beginner

    Hello, all. First off, I've never operated a DSLR. But I'm very much interested in photography that I've enough enthusiasm to put some effort into learning it. That being said, after a lot of delays, I've decided to get myself a DSLR; although on a tight budget. Also, I'm just a beginner...
