dslr camera 7d image

I want a dslr camera that is under about 300 dollars that can take very good quality pictures. I know most dslr cameras are very expensive, but I am looking for the best camera that isn't as expensive. And also, is it a good idea to look for a used dslr camera so it can be cheaper than the original price?

Answer
Make sure you get a canon. if you get nikon you will probably end up shedding out for more lenses. the D300 is NOT the best digital slr so don't listen. It is far from the best. If you are looking for a good price and fairly cheap lenses always go for a used Canon. If you get a model such as 400d or 350d which has been out for time you will get one for very cheap. Check ebay or amazon for used 400d body's.

I used the 400d before my 7d and it served me VERY well. :)

What is a good dslr camera for a future photojournalism student?

Q. im looking for a dslr camera to use in my last year of high school and college however i dont know what to look for or where to look.

Answer
Do you already know photography with a film SLR? If not, you need something 100% manual. A Pentax K-1000 type camera, to learn with. If you are serious about PJ stuff, then you need to know how to set up a camera by instinct, not plodding through menus. A few years with manual film gear will either teach you that skill, or change your career path.

Any of the current medium range DSLR bodies would serve you well if you already know all that aperture and ISO trivia stuff. Nikon D300s, Canon 7D, Sony A850, Pentax k7, Olympus E30/E3.
