I'm buying either a nikon d90 body with a 85mm 1.4 lens or the d7000 with the kit lens. Main purpose will be portraits. I want the best image quality I can get so I'm leaning twords the d90, but that brand new d7000 makes me stop and think.

I'm getting the Canon Rebel XS, instead of the Nikon D3000. I decided on Canon because if I get a more professional, like over 1000 dollar one in a few years, I will be able to use the same lenses I buy for this one. So I'm sticking to the Canon brand.
Anyways, it comes with an 18-55mm lens. What kind of pictures will this allow me to take photography wise? Any examples you can show me?
Also, what is the next lens I should get? A telephoto lens? For macro shots? I love to photograph flowers and such.

Now i have had the D70, the d80 and now the d90 and i'm really having a hard time white balancing this thing. I used to be able to just take a picture of what i wanted white and the images i captured after that would be white balanced. Did they change this on the 90 because i can't seem to be able to do it… So weird

I started out with a point and shoot, I've had a bridge for 3years and I'm ready to invest in my first dslr, I've been looking into the NIKON d3100, d60, CANON t2i, xs, SONY a230, a390, PANANSONIC lumix dmc-gh2, what would you recommend for a entry level camera?

Using auto focus lenes on Nikon D80?
Can I use an auto focus lens, (AF-S DX 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G VR) with the D80? I'm pretty sure it will but I want to make sure I won't break anything since the lens has an auto focus motor and the D80 has a built in auto focus motor as well.

Anyone have experience with a Nikkor AF-S 50 mm f/1.4 lens?
I have a Nikon D60 with a standard 18-55mm kit lens and a 55-200mm lens. Looking for something faster, to shoot kids in low light, casual family gatherings and some senior portrait work. I've done a lot of research and this seems to be the one for me. Just wondering if you have it, are you happy with it? It's a pricey piece of glass.

How to capture motion with poor artificial light?
I have a Nikon D3000 with a 55-200mm VR lens, 4-5.6 aperture settings. I like to take pictures of track and field, and right now it's the indoor season. When I take pictures with artificial light and a high shutter speed, such as 1/250, the pictures come out very dark. I have toyed with my ISO settings and usually have it at 1600 or Hi-1 when inside to bring out as much light as possible. To solve that problem I have been slowing the shutter speed to 1/25, ISO to 800 and aperture to 5.0 and getting quality shots, but when the subject is in motion, it gets blurred. What settings work best in poor artificial light? I have been told a high shutter speed, low ISO (200-600) and aperture at 4 or lower. Will that work?

Are 10000 shots made with a camera much?
