I have my mind set on the NikonD90 with 18-200mm lens,i checked various websites and usualy all of them give pluses and minuses about it, what would be your suggestion?considering there is the cheaper alternative from cannon, im not looking to buy something cheaper,im trying to figure witch would be the best semi-pro digital slr,and also i might be wrong but i have the feeling that the percentage of proffesional photographers useing nikons is higher than the rest useing other brands,am i right?

I would like to know how can we use the RAW image and what all changes can we do that we can't with the jpeg image. I'm asking this coz these days a lot of photographers use Photoshop so is it really required to take RAW images?

Same here. Also, what version of PhotoShop is best for RAW editing?
Great video BTW.

The Canon 40D is a great all around "Advanced Amateur" level camera. As far as "for macro and everything"...well, to shoot Macro you need a macro lens; the camera itself is irrelevant in that regard. And if by "and everything" you mean every other possible kind of photography...well...like I said, it's a great all-around camera for an Advanced Amateur. Helpful?

Hey, can anyone of you help me? when i bought my nikon d60 i realised there were some scratches when i looked through the viewfinder, and it appears that the scractches are from the focusing lens inside the cameras body right above the mirror. does normal warranty cover it? or must i just get a new focusing lens? i just got my nikon d60 today :(

Very basic; it would of been nice to include more detail on the difference between the two file types, it was however unbiased and accurate... something a lot of people lack.
