so from the last year it looks like the Nikon D3100 and maybe the Canon T2i were the best bang-for-your-buck cameras.
I want a DSLR but I don't want to spend a lot of money (I'm not a pro). $600 is the absolute maximum I want to spend, but I'd actually prefer to find a used camera and spend a little less.
I'm not super brand loyal or set on one camera over another. I had planned to get the Nikon, but the prices seem to be going up because of the flooding in Thailand. Also, it occurs to me that both these cameras are already nearing a year old, and I know sensor technology advances rapidly.
I'll be in HK in March, and I'm thinking of picking up a camera then. Which brands/models should I be looking at in the entry-level range?
