camera help: What’s the best DSLR Camera for about $1,000? - Help.com

Howdy,

Best? I think you will find a different answer from each person on such a general question as this. People use cameras for many different things and each photographer usually weighs funtionality on a very personal scale. With that said…

The market price of $1,000 D-SLR’s has spread across most of the top manufacturers. Nikon amd Canon have both held respective top spots on sub $1000 units (read: $999.00) Interestingly enough, the May 2006 issue of PC Magazine gives a first look at the Olympus Evolt E-330 and gives it high marks (4 out of 5). The big talk around this shooter is the fact you can frame pictures using either the viewfinder or an articulating LCD screen (2.5 inch) - a first for a D-SLR camera. It’s an impressive entry level D-SLR at 7.5 Mega Pixels. You’ll pay just over a grand for this one as it’s pricetag is currently $1,100.
