Jessica

I'm 13 years old and have had like 4 cameras already but none a dslr. I'm into photography and ok at it and I want my first dslr camera. Do you recommend the Nikon D60? I can work my way around it don't worry about that, I just don't know if that cameras good or not for the price (about 600$)

Answer
I am more of a canon guy but the nikon d60 is an amazing dslr as a first dslr. Playing with the manual settings, you'll learn a lot about photography. Using the automatic features will help aswell. If your really unsure some camera stores allow the users to play with the cameras before you purchase them plus tons of camera stores have a knowledge staff that will show you how to use some of features.

They all produce beautiful Photo's and Video.

Ease of use:T3i
Depth of field:T3i
Photo Quality:D3200
Video Quality:T3i/GH2

My personal favourite T3i
But it's really just an opinion
If you're more into photography Nikon is the way to go
If you're more into Filmmaking Panasonic or Canon

Good Luck!

How much tax and duty should I expect to pay when purchasing a camera from Ebay.?

blomstyle

I am looking to purchase a DSLR Camera from Ebay for around $600 plus shipping. The seller is located in the USA (NY state) and I am located in Canada (Ontario). I know I will be charged the 13% HST in Ontario but I am looking to ballpark the amount of duty I will have to pay. I've heard between 0-18% but I was looking for a more definitive number on a purchase of around $600.

Answer
There is no duty on cameras imported from the US.
