That Nikon is a great outfit and the price seems pretty good, but perhaps she'd want a simpler way to take great photos, like the Canon Powershot g12: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-G12-Digi.../dp/B0041RSPRS I think I'd go the same way.... I'd prefer the Nikon's (still lugging around my 42 year old Nikon FTNs around, on occasion).... but if she doesn't want a bunch of levers, dials, and buttons getting in the way of her memories... the Canon might be a better fit.... I looked at the G12 site above, and read a lot of the reviews. For a point and shoot it's probably a great camera. But, it's not a 'grown up's' camera, which is undoubtedly part of my daughter's desires. She enjoys photography and wants the capabilities of a DSLR. I think the Nikon D90 will work for her. What the hell, it's only money. Well, by golly.... more power to the young lady. Photography has been one of my inspirations since I was a young teenager. Money well spent on an inspired progeny...! Somebody doesn't know how to read. The G12 is at the top of the heap in the P&S market and likely has more features than any progeny of a Herring is likely to understand. The D90 is a trick camera that adds the feature of video and doesn't do it well. It's an okay DSLR. Of couse, Herring hasn't even mentioned lenses which is the key to any SLR setup, digital or otherwise. No one should buy any camera body until they think about how the camera will be used and which lens is likely to be their most used based on their specific interests. It's like buying a boat without thinking about how it's going to be used. Hey, this one looks like a good deal. |

When I went to a DSLR, the fact that none of my Canon lenses would fit the Canon DSLRs pushed me in the Nikon direction. She pleaded with me to give her my Canon SLRs and lenses, which I did. She used them for several years, until I gave her my digital P&S, also a Nikon. Now she's ready to go DSLR. One nice thing about getting daughters into photography is that it's always easy to find gifts for birthdays, mother's days, and Christmas. |

The lenses for the "crop" Canon DSLRs, however, don't work properly opticaly on a full-frame Canon SLR or DSLR. The DSLR lines of Canon and Nikon are very competitive. |
