Once you chose a DSLR, you will start adding lenses. These will end up costing you more than the camera in most likelyhood.
Once you have the lenses, it's very hard to switch to a different mfr. You will probably then stay with them for a very long time! So, choose your first SLR wisely!!!!
Right now, I would chose one of the Canons or Nikons. Both have entry level cameras up to Pro versions.
A good entry for Canon is the new XTi (about $900+), or the 30D if the XTi is too tiny of grip (for me it is).
A good entry Nikon is the D80 with 18-135mm at about $1200 (the Nikon 80 is my reccommended camera).

PopPhotography had a 'showdown' and said the Nikon came out better, but I think you cannot go wrong with either. Just remember, once you have started in one 'camp', you will likely stay there.

ok it relatively is many times on the subject of whilst somebody asks some expert digital camera! you notice as a expert you should comprehend what sort of apparatus you pick and then come across a extra value-efficient decision. in addition to a expert would be waiting to function a digital camera to it relatively is finished skill. Now to a expert they could seek for something like a Nikon D200, Canon 40D, Canon 1DmkII, Canon 5D or Canon 1Ds mkII, with the right lens for the difficulty. once you're photographing landscapes you will need 10-22mm lens for the D200 or 40D, and a sixteen-35/17-40mm lens for a 1D or a 5D. Portaits will choose a 50mm or an 85mm on the 1D/5D and specific a a hundred or 135mm lens. organic international demands longer lenses and the 1Ds and 5D will possibly no longer have the cost of a 1D. you will a minimum of fashion a sigma one hundred fifty-500 or Canon a hundred-400mm L, probably a speedy best fairly. in actuality "technologies" does not be counted. high quality does. it relatively is why a short zoom or fixed focal is extra useful than an all-in-one that is ineffective. And an older prosumer or expert physique brings you extra useful administration, and much less gadgets and gizmos that get on your way, by fact all you pick is Av/A television/S and instruction manual modes.

I researched the options quit a bit when I decided to but one and chose the rebel xti. I love, love, love the camera! The 5D is a step up, but it's more expensive and a little more camera than I needed. I decided to go with the rebel and start putting money towards glass.

How much do you want to spend?
I will come back and check to see if you "added details," before I post a long-winded answer that would be totally useless for your purposes.
I'll give you a clue that I am usually known to recommend various Nikon dSLR's at any price level.
