I got a Nikon D3100 with 32GB card, UV Filter, bag, and tripod for 32k. Its an awesome choice for starter like me. Learning curve is smoother

hmmm ur deal seems costly...how much did u pay for 32gb card.

Here in nagpur 3100 kit+4gb card+bag costs 27k (with bill and warranty)

So the current best models r from Canon & Nikon......
Btw how much a tripod costs???

Bro it really depends on u...Sony A33 and A55 have poor handling but great features...A55 is even considered D90's rival..
There r 'n' number of models to confuse us:lol:

Sorry I donno tripod pricing.

In India we can have D90+kit with bill and warranty for RS.50k or $1100
Body only costs nearly 40k or Around $880

D7000 is another excellent piece form Nikon. And upgraded model from D90. Its best in its category also. Very good at low light conditions.

If have budget you can go for it without hesitation. If have more money to burn then go for canon 7D.

But both D7000 and 7D are high megapixel cams so need equally good glass to make full use of its 16 or 18 mp sensors.

Friends the time has come finally :) Will be buying one within a week.

I am eyeing upon nikon D7000 and D300S

D7000 with kit lens is costing me 74k
D300s only body is costing me 74k

Pour in your comments and suggestions, which one is better.

While I do like the compact nature of D7000 and full hd video recording plus high ISO. Consider me as a novice though.

for a novice, i would recommend nikon D3100 and Canon 550D as both has full HD recording and high iso @ 12800. no offense, but i would not recommend for going towards semi professional DSLR if your usage limited to family, traveling and a little bit of birding/wildlife. both has superior image quality and 1080p HD recording. i would go for lenses rather that spending on body. you will need 35mm along with 55-200 or 70-300, go for the body and spend on 18-300 lens.

@faun....choudang is right ...but if u r ready to spend on lens in comming months then its OK for us...its your money afterall:razz:

: Digital Photography Review

Compared both of them and most things r similar...But still I would say go for D7000 coz it have the newer Nikon sensor with better low light images...

No they keep the cost of D3100 down buy not supplying cables. You can buy a cheap SD Card reader if you don't want to purchase the cable.
