What Would be a Suitable Camera for Me?

Q. What are some really good cameras? I am an aspiring photographer, but I have your run-in-the-mill crappy camera. Next summer, I will be taking a school trip to Dublin, London, and Paris. I want a great quality camera for my trip but don't know where to look.
This is my ideal camera:

Is that a good camera? Or do you think I should get a different one?

A. Yes, a Nikon DSLR is an excellent camera. Your picture doesn't say which model the camera is, but all Nikon DSLR's are excellent. But then so are Canon's, Sony's, Pentax and Olympus. Look over the Nikon line and decide which meets your budget.

If you can afford the D7000, wait a few months, the newer D7100 probably will be announced and you might get a price break.


Why is the Leica M8 so good?
Q. Why is the Leica M8 good what makes it Unique from the Dslr's?

A. Well, in a lot of ways, in 2013, the Leica M8 is actually not so good by current standards. It's a crop sensor digital camera with, what is now considered, poor high ISO noise redux. The M9 is another story however.

The reason the M8 used to be considered a great digital camera and still is if you're on a budget, is that it is a rangefinder camera. That in itself makes it unique from DSLR's because it is simply not a Single Lens Reflex camera.

If you want to study up on the differences between rangefinders and SLR's, there are hundreds of in-depth discussions all over the internet. Essentially it boils down to rangefinders being smaller, quieter, better at manual focusing in low light and due to the lack of a flipping mirror, viewing is more of the moment as well as handheld slow shutter speeds more free of vibration. The problem is that there are limitations to composition and use of macro and longer telephoto lenses as well as zoom lenses with rangefinders. Also, some folks just don't like focusing through them.

Whats-more, Leica build quality far exceeds those of most popular manufacturers. They hand-assemble their camera and lenses with higher quality materials and more tightly fitting parts. This results in cameras and lenses that feel very enjoyable to use but also that last through extreme abuse and continue to work well for decades.

Leica is also world renowned for the high optical performance of their lenses. They are virtually devoid of optical abberations commonly found in Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Olympus and other more popular lensmakers products.

Hope this is useful!
