D90 Preview

Buying DSLR camera is not like buying vegetable in the market. You really need to see what you want to buy in order to get something worth the money that you are going to dump in. What I would normally do is browse through website that explain the camera that I wanted to buy in detail. Once you know a little bit about the features as well as specifications,  I will then proceed to forums or blogs to get the 1st hand view by the user themselves. They would normally explain in their terms on how to use the camera, sometime even list out the advantage and disadvantage of using the camera.

By now, you would know which camera suite you best since you might come across a lot of article comparing the one you want and some other model in the market. So now, what you need to do is to scout for the market price and hoping to get a price lower then that. What i did was to go to local bidding web site where i could see the price being advertised for the product or model. Once i get the picture of the price, I would proceed to find it at the store. For this kind of expensive stuff, buying from online store is not such a good idea as we might not know how establish they are. Also,  mostly of the stores are very from you and therefore, interaction by meeting in person would sometime be a very difficult factor. If you would stick to a store near you, when you really need some helping hand, I believe they would be more then willing to help you for something that does not requires warranty claiming.
