I am thinking of buying a good DLSR. But I dunno anything about photography, that being said, what is a good one? I am thinking of getting an EOS 60D lol. Where can I get a good one, I was told it is really more expensive in Salam.

I purchased EOS 500D combi pack (55-250mm) from Salam guess for QR4500. It's awesome and have features similar to high end dslr's. Opt on. Salam the best. Your investing valuable money for a sensitive item, look for a reliable store which supports and solves your queries. Suggest you Salam. Moreover.. am a beginner too.

Get it. 60D is very good camera for semi pro starter. If you want cheaper one you may pick 50D model. Remeber both is not Full Frame DSLR.

You may get it cheaper on Amzon.com and send by aramex. Much cheaper than Salam.

My advise to invest for best quality of lens rather that kit lens, at the end you may drop it & can't sell to anyone else.

The big question is... How much do you want to spend?

The best entry level DSLR is the Canon T1I or the european version of it the 500D. It's very user friendly with good ergonomics and tons of features that usually come on that higher end models. It you have the budget, i will also recommend you to get a 50mm lens as an addition to the lens that comes with the camera. You will be pleased with your purchase.

Salam is bit expensive...maybe 100-200 riyals difference...but their service is worth paying that extra bucks...and they have answer for all your quires...They will suggest you the best one for a beginner. After sales service is also really good..

If you buy from retailers they just sell you the product..most of the sales men have zero product knowledge.
