I love the part where he says"So if one can afford to indulge,then just go ahead."

I always say if you can afford it…buy it. According to me it’s true even if you do not need some features right now. I mean there is no reason to not to buy a D200 right now if its easily affordable (unless you are specifically looking for lighter and smaller camera). A lot of time I hear people speaking out against such purchase and generally the logic goes…. 1. You don’t need those features, only professional need then. 2. You don’t need expensive camera to make great photograph 3. A lot of professionals use D50 ….and so on. All the above point is true and I agree with it. However if one can easily (mind you I say easily) afford a D200 or other more expensive model then I really do not think there is any harm. In fact most of the professional cameras are bought by rich armatures. If tomorrow hobbyist and these armatures stop buying these cameras Cannon and Nikon will be in a big trouble. So if one can afford to indulge, then just go ahead. For those who are more sensitive to cost, yes D50 is a good deal and most will be satisfied with it. Check out its features and if you think you do not need the extra features of D70 or D80 then go for it. One more point to consider is, how long you wish to keep the camera before you are ready to replace it. In case you want to stick with it for a long time say next 4 to 5 years then go for a D80 if you can afford it. You may not need the extra features right now but in future as you grow into photography then you might need it. Finally in case anyone is going for a D50 may want to wait a bit because most probably a new entry level camera might be introduced soon which will be to D80 what D50 was to D70. Rohit Hello Bolton,
