Great idea! And some very good sites up there already. I love DC Resource and DP Review.

Other great review sites:
http://www.slrgear.com/reviews/index.php
http://www.photozone.de/
http://www.cameralabs.com

And lastshot, I suppose we could add a category for online photo album sites, e.g. Flickr, Photobucket, etc.

www.dyxum.com is great for the minolta A-Mount digital cameras, has reviews of lenses as well as cameras plus a good forum

I grabbed a Sony Alpha A300 only because CC was going out of business and I got it for $400, if they weren't I would have grabbed a Nikon D40 as they are just about the best starter dSLR under $500

Moots, you ought to sticky this thread if possible.

@ Lastshot - what about adding a section listing the various image hosting sites (i.e. flickr, picassa, etc.)?

I'll make sure to edit him from the list if that ever happens

I'll look into sticking this. I'd like to see a couple of these types of threads for various things such as FAQs, lens and mount differences, basic functionality of settings, etc. If anyone is interested in writing something, let me know

xlastshotx · Mar 3, 2009

I know theres more good sites out there, post them!
