    best digital slr for the money

    Looking at a Nikon D3000/d3100. Opinions, ideas? Wanted for nature, art, and food photography.

    That is a good one. You can't go wrong with Nikon or Canon. Just settle on a price range and then check features you desire.

    Nikon D3100 is the newest generation with best rendition of colors. The D3000 has a CCD sensor that is dated technology, and has limited low light capability.

    Our daughter who is a professional photographer got a Canon 7D, then a 5D. There are certain situations in which Nikon is better (I'm not a photographer, so I don't get it). After her series of weddings, she plans to get the Nikon as well.

    BTW her photography is featured in Rue Magazine that just came out today. http://www.ruemag.com/issues/issue-five/

    I'm personally I Nikon fan. I have a D70 that I purchased about 5-6 years ago, and it still takes great pics. My wife has D50 that's even older and she loves it. That being said, I have a cousin that swears by Canon. Either way, you can't go wrong.

    compare the D3000 at iso 1600 or 3200 to a D3100. The color rendition from Nikon's current Expeed processor is a notable leap forward from the last generation cameras.

    On the D200 color rendition out the camera is much better than D300s. Anyways a these sensors are made by Sony.
