Nikon D80 跟 Canon EOS 40D 哪部較好? 價錢?

Nikon D80 / Canon 40D 那部較好... this is NO answer.. it depend on what you want.

If you looking for DSLR... you have to know some difference with DC, heavy, cost for more.. and NEVER end...

D80 kit - $8,000 - $8,500
40D body - $8,800

Both 1000萬像素, CF Card, digital format (NOT Full Frame). If you go to some local forum, if you ask for same question.. it will have 2nd world war... :) in Canon forum sure for 40D, Nikon forum sure for D80.... For me.. I use Nikon D70.... I didn't do any research before.. just what I like... but after I study... I think I didn't make the wrong choice....

1. I like the photos sharp (Canon will make soft but good for 人像),
2. Cost for lens... (Nikon cheaper than Canon... this is what I see.. may be not)
3. I start to looking for quality... for Nikon.. even 70~200 range... only have ONE good lens for me 70~200 f2.8 ($11,000)... but Canon.. will have 70-200 f4 ($8,500) or 70-200 f2.8 ($13,000) , either IS, USM... some people may spend $$ on f4 first and upgrade to f2.8 later... even I sell f4 but still loss some $$
4. Canon have noise control very good... but at the end of Nov, when Nikon new model on board.. this benfit will back to Nikon (technology upgrade). I think Canon will have another model to cover this later... but being I also have Nikon lens on hands... not easy for me to change to another brand.
5. 除塵系統.... of course is function.. but are you always have 塵 in CCD ??

Being you have $10,000 now... BUT make sure you will spend MORE and MORE later.. don't expect this $10,000 can cover everything...
Ultra Fast Save Card - $800 4GB
Portable storage - $1,000
External Flash - $2,800 ~ $3,500 (depend on Nikon or Canon)
Other lens. 三腳架 ...

Therefore, try to think about it...

*** note.
If you interest to take photos, don't waste $$ on cheap cheap lens... at the end.. you may buy f2.8 or f4.0 lens and trade f3.5~5.6 lens away (due to the quality requirement) I prefer you to save $$ and get the BEST.

And also.. TRY to think FF lens not Dight format lens

如果budget 只有1萬左右,我覺得你出D80會比較好,因為40D 的單機價都 8,600元,重未計鏡頭和其他攝影用具(腳架,濾鏡,相機袋,記憶卡.....) 因此我覺得你出D80 會比較好,因為D80 單機都是 6,580 ,但我覺得唔好出KIT SET ,因為果支18-135 係膠接環加上18-135 比較高倍數變焦會使相的成像會無這麼好,18-135的 有1個ED鏡片，2個非球面鏡片,而 AF-S DX 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G有3 塊 ED 鏡片，1 塊非球面鏡片,因為我覺得你出D80 (6500元左右)+ AF-S 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G DX IF-ED(1900元左右) ,之後重有錢出其他野,例如可以出遠攝鏡OR 大光圈鏡,OR 出腳架,濾鏡果D 用品

get the 40D, it has liveview.
