Very nice tarantulas and pictures!
I'm thinking on buying a digital reflex camera. Anyone has any suggestions? I personally like Nikon but I wanted to know what you guys think.

best regards,
Pato

Nikon and Cannon are both good choices. You have to do some research and figure out a budget and go from there.

 

[pato_chacoana]

Yes I know, I was just asking for personal opinions.

 

[pato_chacoana]

Ohh my budget is about 1000 US$ max. for body. Yes budget is very important about cameras!! hehe

 

[Talkenlate04]

Well that puts you at the Nikon D40 or D40x with that budget. MAYBE if you shop around you could score a D80 for around that price. Lenses are a whole different story lol.

I bought the Nikon D40 and I am pleased with it, it does take some figuring out, but I find myself using the auto function more than anything.

 

[pato_chacoana]

Yes, I was thinking in D60, it comes with a 18-55 mm lens and I have 2 more lens to use with, one Sigma 28-80mm and one Micro Nikkor 60mm. Here is more expensive (like 1200 dollars), in the US is about 700 dollars in B&H New York. But I think I going to go with that one.
I talked with a photographer friend and he also recommend me that one even above of the D80, which is an older model he said and more expensive.

Pato.

Ya above the D80 you could get the D200, D300, or D3. They are progressively more and more expensive. The D3 body and lens kit could put you back $5,000+us.

i just finished watching all your pics man and i have to say they are pretty amazing. u just made my night brighter thanks and keep them coming!

 

[Talkenlate04]

Thank you very much! I think I am getting better. And there is no shortage of Ts to take pictures of!

 

[YeloNeck]

Ryan, how much Ts have you got ?
Btw. Stunning pics !! I think i'm in love with your Thread

 

[Talkenlate04]

Uhhh I have not counted recently. Maybe 1000-2000? Somewhere in there. Most of them are babies that I hatched this year that I am raising. I think I only have about 100 adults and sub adults.

 

[YeloNeck]

I wonder - where do you keep them ?

 

[Talkenlate04]

They all in one room, it’s temperature regulated and quite cozy.

I have full confidence in your ability to deal with this situation!!

 

[Talkenlate04]

Just for fun.

A Canon EOS 40D is in your budget, personally I prefer it over any non-DXXX Nikon. Also, I wouldn't over look the Canon EOS 450D, it's one sweet little camera.

Miranda molt!

And just in time. She has a MM waiting to service her in the coming weeks.
