Of course, the term wanting
is a broad term. Maybe I should say The Canon 5D is Almost Something I Could Buy. But it’s just a tad too expensive still, at around $3,300, for my student budget. 🙂
The ideal digital SLR (for me) would have around 8 megapixels, be capable of about 3 or 4 frames per second and would have a full size image sensor. It could cost about $1,000 or so. Of course, I wouldn’t mind if it were even cheaper… The reason I would prefer a full-size image sensor is so that I can use my current Canon EF lenses without quality loss. (If I were to use a digital SLR with an image sensor smaller than the default 24×36 mm the chromatic aberration of my (fairly cheap) lenses would be magnified by the same factor as the rest of the picture. (Often 1.6 times with Canon’s digital SLRs.)
Canon 5D is on the top.
