Q. I am looking for a good DSLR camera that is under 700$. I do not really care what brand, but i like Olympus camera style. I am hoping to start stock photography and macro flower and bug pictures etc. So please think on those ideas. Thanks in advance. I will pick a best answer!!
Answer
For DSLRs Olympus is a NO! ... The best DSLRs are definitely from Nikon or Canon. And you do have a pretty good budget so get the best. The camera that i would recommend is Canon EOS Rebel T2i. Its a great camera and definitely worth it. Its for about $714.00. I suggest you read this really detailed review (i know its really long but it WILL help):

What is a good DSLR camera under $700?
ross
Looking to upgrade from a Nikon D40 that was stolen. I'm not as interested in extra features like video as I am in picture quality. Ideally but not necessarily with a lens.
I loved my D40. It was my first DSLR. I barely took it off manual mode. I was sort of outgrowing the megapixels and limited ISO range but it was great.
Some solid advice would be greatly appreciated!

Be bold! if you don't have a lot invested in Nikon glass, take a look at the Sony A57 for 699, body only.

One thing you mention about video, you don't really have a choice. If you buy a new 2011 or 2012 model dSLR or dSLT camera, it will most likely have video. This does not affect stills quality, so it's just not an issue.
Nikon just announced the new D3200 camera. All Nikon dSLRs use Sony image sensors, and this one was taken from the Sony A65 and A77. A good sensor, but not great in low light, part of the problem is too many pixels (24 megapixels). So if you stick with Nikon, know that going in, also like all the entry level Nikons, it still has no auto focus motor, not an issue until you buy a lens with no motor.
So while the image quality at high ISO got better after the D40 with the D3000, and D3100, I suspect that Nikon took a step backward at high ISO with the D3200 despite that fact that Nikon does a good job with handling Sony image sensors, they can't change the laws of physics.
For better ISO performance, it might be better to go with a D3100 or D5100 or wait and see what Nikon does with the d5100 replacement.
