Hello all,
Right now I have a Kodak EasyShare DX7630 (6.1MP). I'm thinking about upgrading to a SLR (looking at the Nikon D50 right now). I'm an amateur photo taker and really only use the Kodak for family events (sports (running), skiing (in the terrain park) and family photos with the occasional vacation). So,
What advantages would a SLR have over my current Kodak?
I could maybe see myself doing more photo projects with a nicer camera, but other than that the above uses would probably be about all I use it for.
Would there be any resale value with the Kodak, or is there not much market for used cameras?
If I upgraded, it would be nice to get something for the Kodak since I wouldn't need it anymore.
Are there any other SLR's you would recommend which are in the same price range as the D50?
I'm looking to spend ~$600.
Do you think it would be worth the investment to upgrade? My Kodak is only a little over a year old, so should I keep it a while longer before making a new purchase?
Your advice please.
