The thing I'm facing now, is if I end up buying digital, then it won't be a high end camera. Since I've never really shot much before on either digital or manual, I don't know what I need. I've been leaning more towards a lower end digital camera with some manual features to get accustomed to. I'd rather not spend $1000 on a digital camera that I won't be able to use until its available for $200 a few years later.

Hmmmmm. this is killing me, but that seems to be more of the way I'm leaning lately.

Also, I'd rather comb through some flea markets and garage sales for an old SLR camera body for a really cheap price, and spend a little bit on a lense. The entry price of SLR seems too dramatic. Even 400 USD is about 600 CAD.

I'm going to check out some of the digital cameras mentioned here, and keep looking. Thanks for the input everyone.

As always, more is welcome.
