Tell me what you think and if it would be a good camera for me!
Answer
No they are not. If your just getting a dslr then grab a nikon d40 with a 18-55mm vr lens. great camera. its only 6mp but its plenty enough for 4x6 all the way up to poster size. Its the best camera under $1200 for low light photography, and its got a great lens. also the flash sync time is 1/500th of a second versus the slower 1/250th of a second that every other entry level digital slr has. It can be had for under 450 with that lens which is a great piece of glass. I use it in my bag a lot and love it. The thing with digital is that the camera's depreciate in value a lot more than lenses and its the lens that makes a good picture great. Ive shot stuff on my d200 with a shit vivitar lens and it was crap. OS save your money, get a d40 and the 18-55vr, a 55-200vr for telephoto 2 uv filters for each lens and if you need a flash then have a look at the sb400 flash. All this can be had for around 800 and would be a better set up than any pentax, canon or more expensive nikon set up for a beginner

Can you take equally good photos with digital as to DSLR?Its just DSLR are so god damn expencive!
like HDR etc.
Answer
what defines a SLR, digital or film is the mirror. Plain old digital cameras are called point and shoot cameras. The mirror's main advantage is being able to show you what the lens sees. You have no excuses for cutting off heads and feet with an SLR or DSLR. A point and shoot is designed to be able to simply point it and shoot it. No insight is needed. It uses a sensor the same way a DSLR uses it's mirror. Some of the newest DLSRs can do both.
I don't know why they are so damned expensive. I don't understand why cars are. $50,000 for a hunk of steal?
But i have seen point and shoot cameras for $1000! A good DSLR should cost about $500. And they do go past $10,000.
A DSLR lets you use different lenses that allow for better pictures and different effects. Theoretically you can take equally good pictures but if we were to roll in the mire of semantics there are inequalities between the two in terms of picture quality.
HDR is a computer editing thing. But dynamic range does have something to do with the electronics of the camera. A good camera used correctly can make it so you don't need to do an HDR effect later.
It comes down to quality. A fine piece of equipment built by highly skilled (and paid) technicians costs more than a machined product.
