   Nikon d90, gonna be right at the top of your price range tho, like $999 with lens and all (can catch around 700 if you shop)

   I love this cam and bonus it takes great 720p video as well.

   almost the same quality and features as there d300 at about half the price

   the bests with that budget are the Nikon D3100, Nikon D90, and Canon T2i

   that, however, does not mean that cameras that cost less can’t get the same quality- after all, it is mostly the photographer that impacts the quality of a picture… so look at the following models.

   Nikons D3000, D5000, D3100, D90
   Canons Rebel Xs, T1i, and T2i

   You’ll get the usual Canon and Nikon users that have never used anything else.

   Have a look at either the Sony A55 or A580. The Sony A55 was in Time magazine and is winning awards, it as a 100% coverage electronic view finder, 10fps and the fastest live-view and video auto-focus out there.

   You get auto HDR, 3d panoramic sweep, smile technology, GPS tagging and so on and so on. Both have the same Sony sensor as used in the much more expensive Nikon D7000.

   Sony dSLRs take Sony, Minolta, Sigma, Tamron, Tokina, CZ and so on lenses, there are HUNDREDS of them.

   Also have a look at how many thumbs downs this gets from people who have never even seen the A55/580 never mind used one, they really are clueless…sigh…
