I have always had a interest in photography and would really like to start soon. Does anyone have any words of wisdom to what camera to get? I want a solid camera that can take some incredible photos with out breaking the bank. Cause I am a college student and don't have money to throw around. Something between $200-$500 would be perfect. Thanks

Besides the media arts point, my first camera was a Canon Rebel and that it worked great for me getting started into photography.

Nikon D3000 (or D5000, depending on price point) or Canon Rebel

Its just a matter of personal preference. Personally, I like Nikon and wouldn't use anything else.

Try them out before you buy. It comes down to what you are more comfortable with (e.g. Menus, Settings, Ease of Navigation, etc.)

Good Luck
