| then imagine walking around carrying that, combined with a nicer lens (not the kit lens) that typically have some heft to them. What you have is an incredible awkward camera to handhold. Its too small, and its cheaply made. I've held nearly every single modern DSLR for the past 5-7 years, it wasnt till the 350D and D50 did this most recent complaint begin. Basing my statement that the potential user in this thread is experienced somewhat with an SLR I think he'll be sorely dissapointed if he bought a D50 after using a normal sized SLR for any amount of time. The D50 fits the market its after, the parents/amateurs that base their camera purchases on how many megapixels, and what brand is behind it. They are told its an SLR for a cheap price, and thats what they want. For anyone even remotely over "amateur" they wont like the D50 for very long.
