Answer 1

I agree with the other answers here that you should go with Canon. My recommendation would be anything in the "A" series - A530, A630, etc. whichever one fits in your budget better (the difference in models usually correspond with more megapixels and larger LCDs). You'll most probably get the best all around camera for the money. These cameras have great pic quality and usually offer at least some manual controls (in addition to the automatic stuff) to give you more flexibilty as you get more advanced.

And yes, stay away from the super cheap stuff. Stick with Canon, Sony, Panasonic, Nikon, Fuji, Olympus... in no particular order. They are probably the best digicam makers right now

Answer 2

evaluate basically Canon and Nikon. they are the leaders in professional 35mm and digital SLR's and over 80% of the professional photographers worldwide use them. in case you compromise directly to attend a university or college in pursuit of getting to understand photographs word that maximum start up coaching you utilising a action picture digital camera and the digital is presented in later courses. the stable element is might have the potential to apply the lenses you purchase to your action picture digital camera on the digital (in case you purchase the two a Canon or Nikon equipment) some faculties start up you out utilising a 4x5 view digital camera, so for a on a similar time as (a minimum of whilst it contains classification assignments) your DSLR might convey mutually some airborne dirt and dust.
