When I lived in Missoula, MT, I got to know Mike and the other employees at The Dark Room on Higgins St. I even sold my Hasselblad through them. It is always nice to have friends who will help you out and I consider them my friends.
If you do not have a local camera shop, use B and H. I have worked with several other online sources and the experience left me sour. With B and H you get a good price and great service. I trust them. So, buy from me at double the price, or use local, or B and H.
Now you want to know what kind of camera to buy to get started? Hmmmm. What I would buy and what you should buy are going to be two different things. I want the Leica S2, and I really think Santa should get that for my Christmas gift. Realistically I probably won't be getting that for Xmas ( I will be lucky if I get coal).
What should you buy to get started? I was a Canon guy and still believe that you get the best bang for your buck from getting a Canon Rebel with the kit lens and then go and buy a 50mm 1.8 lens and a 70-200 l series lens. The Canon system is a good one to start out on. But what about Nikon? They are good too. I just don't know a lot about the Nikon system since I have always used Canon.
I now use a Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1K. The reason is because I am a camera snob.
Not really, I just really like Leica lenses the camera I use comes in a package with one.
I hope that answers some of your questions. Let me know if you have any questions and please leave comments and bookmark this page. Thanks:)
Oh here is the camera I want. It costs $23,000 for the body(then you have to buy the lenses). What a screaming deal!
