The Nikon D50 with its low low price of less than $900 for the body with lens presents a viable Digital Camera for
the rest of us. The 2,000 shot battery life, 0.2 second start up, and nice bright, colorful shots thanks to the
generously sized sensor. The quicker performance, better battery life and a mire rugged feel put it ahead of Canon's
offerings, though many like Canon's quality and the lower price for its older Digital Rebel - almost $600. There is no
way you can go wrong at that price.
Only Six Megapixels you say? Look no further than this
article. These pixels are not the same as those in $100 5-6
megapixel cameras at the local CVS. Registration required to read this story. Check news.com and iht.com tomorrow for
registration less access.
1. Looks like a good camera but unfortunately it uses SD memory cards instead of CF, so not a good backup camera for Nikon DSLR shooters.
