Nikon D50 in arrivoooooooooooo! Ah yes ... after years of SLR "classical" (Nikon F65) and dozens and dozens of photos thrown from trial and error, especially MACRO, I bought my first digital SLR camera, a Nikon D50 used to contain the costs of this latest Digital whim.
My first digital camera was a Canon PowerShot series of 4 megapixels, with whom I made ​​some beautiful pictures, but also outside the aquarium, including macro photos of flowers, travel, vacation and family photos.
Then this digital vending machine, pocket-sized, handy, inexpensive ... I broke down. He no longer wanted to work out. :-(
So last year I bought the Canon A540, the same number of previous, and especially a few extra features 6 megapixels, useful not only to print large photos, something that happens very rarely, but mostly because if a photo is taken it really well they can cut a few details and riquadrarla really like.

Virtually all of my photo album now has been taken with a Canon. :-)

But I've never been satisfied with this camera, which I think has some problems all'esposimetro ... or just the software.
Maybe it's my model, I do not know, but often my very first photos were worse than Canon.
Increasingly, I missed a digital SLR, and to take advantage of the 2 goals that I already had the Nikon still gathering dust in the bag, I am bought with a nominal cost (less than 300 €) a Nikon D50 , a camera out at the end 2005, from 6 Mpixel but with interesting features and especially a CCD of good quality.

Since there are ... for those who want to make the choice of the used camera like mine, you also say WHY 'I chose the D50:

  1. has some more features of the D40, which is located in NEW kit lens similar to a price of 400-450 euros in this period in which output is the nikon d60
  2. has the ability to mount all Nikon lenses, motorized or not, to use the autofocus. Definitely not for the macro is a useful feature ... but for all the other pictures are, especially with moving subjects
  3. 6 mp than enough for prints up to 20 × 30, if they are landscapes, landscapes, travel pictures, or family then even 30 × 40.

And finally some useful link for those who already want to buy this camera or ...

With this camera, awkward to carry around for the classical events of daily life, I will concentrate mainly macro photos in aquaria and in nature, so we mark a GREAT article on Acquaportal dedicated macro photography, sometimes called a "macro"
