The arrival of Canon 450D has got me really thinking of graduating from point-and-shoot camera to digital single lens reflex (DSLR).

And with a better Malaysian ringgit-US dollar exchange of late, it seems I can afford the 450D.

This, to me, is a good camera. It fits nicely the segment between 400D and 40D. The 400D is much too small and light for me while the 40D is way beyond my budget reach. The price tag of US$900 (body and kit lens), will work out to around RM2,950, which is a manageable amount.

But I shall wait for two things before deciding on this camera — first, what the reviews say about the camera, and secondly, what Nikon has up its sleeves to contest what seems to me is the best entry-level DSLR todate.
