I've had Canon cameras before though. My 35mm is a Canon SLR.
If you have a specialty camera store nearby, I'd suggest going there. They can most likely do in-house repairs if anything does happen to your cameras. Some even lend one out if they have to ship them to the manufacturer.
My advice is to look at the Flickr Camera Finder first, because those cameras you've mentioned seem to be very high in price for someone who's just starting out.

You can look at the cameras and see what kind of pictures each of them produce.
Good luck! |
well, we DO have Bestbuy, but they only sell George Foreman grills. No e-readers, no cameras, nothing worth buying. About Wolf/Ritz Camera... they're aliens.
The reason I picked Canon out, is that they have many retailers near my house. Of course a trip to some camera stores doesn't hurt. I'll take a look at Nikon cameras, D90 and D5000 are so famous and I wanna know why.
I've used Ixuses, CoolPixes and Cybershots and a Panasonic camera, but I didn't really like them. I think they were too light. The weight is something one should consider.
They are all pricey, but I think we would stick with it for a long time, so if it's worth it, I think my dear brother will happily afford.
