Great entry level DSLR!
Not much to add to the other positive reviews posted, other than I am another user that loves my D50. Have had it for a year now and shot over 10,000 photos with excellent results (mostly landscape and wildlife).Excellent image quality and the hand grip fits perfectly to both my hand and my husbands.The only CON I can think of at this time is that there is no backlight on the top panel - this makes it difficult to adjust settings in low/ no light situations. Also, for people that are used to the...

Unless you are a sport journalist, you can't go wrong with this camera.
The Nikon D50 is my fourth digital camera, and my first SLR camera. I don't know why I didn't try SLR earlier, but now I have decided that I will never go back to non-SLR cameras (well, I still have my other 3 point and shoot digital cameras which sometime is more convenient to carry.) I guess I'm just trying to show how much I like the SLR camera.Now back about the D50. Unless you are shooting sports/actions professionaly (which then you will want to buy the D2H or D2X for faster focusing processor...

Very good first Digital SLR Camera
I am very happy with this camera.It takes very good photos in automatic mode, but all the extra features make you want to learn how to take amazing photos.Also, I have big hands so the camera feels a lot nicer in my hands than the Canon Digital Rebel XT.The only improvements I would make to the camera are:1 - I am a big guy so the strap doesn't seem to be quite long enough.Eventually I'll pick up a new one.2 - The battery charger setup is very bulky.I'm not quite sure why they chose to put a 5 foot...

Advantages of its own and a great price.
The Nikon D50 is the company's entry-level digital SLR, with a lot tolike, including simplified operation, improved high ISO performance, and lots of features for one of the lowest prices of any camera in this class. (With any luck, prices will drop further with the introduction of the $999 D80 and the prices of the D70s dropping too.You can already buy a D50 for $550, which is scarcely more than many less sophisticated point-and-shoot cameras.The 6.1 megapixel resolution of this camera is more...

Nikon d50: everything I had hoped for in a digital slr.
In addition to the advantages of digital (the camera can hold 300 high quality photos) and the use of all lenses made for the Nikon slr is the very good quality of the pictures and the ease of handling in the non-auto mode.You couldn't ask for more....
