James Friel, nice price on the 46 inch 1080p Samsung. That sounds like a great deal.

Wow! Great question Cobra! I was reading the reviews and leaning toward a purchase. If it is worth buying, no one stepped up to defend it. Thanks for bluntly asking!

I've only had this one, so no personal experience. But there are several youtube videos comparing different models. Here's one that compares 13.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCz2nUjlwCIIf you haven't had one before, I'd go cheaper to start and then decide if I wanted to make that much of an investment. I got mine because I wouldn't spend $200 on a Keytar without "trying" it. And I am very pleased with this. I was playing a solo intro with the band recently and when it was over had several people standing there asking what the instrument was...and complimenting me on my "talent." Which I don't claim to possess. I can mostly hit the right notes... I've only had this one, so no personal experience. But there are several youtube videos comparing different models.

Sorry! I do not know how to answer your questions! Because I was helping a friend buy. Not on my own use!

Please help! I poured so much time and money into this. I am so confused...

Thanks for your help Brewster. I wouldn't mind getting a SLR, but I'm afraid it might be too complicated?! Is there one that you'd recommend?

Do some research (for example, Google "wet shaving"). Also, you can get a good perspective on products from the Amazon reviews. My advice - don't get into this by purchasing a cheap "starter kit". That's what I did, and had a horrible introduction to wet shaving (to the point where I almost quit and went back to the multi-blades). Then I did some research and "invested" in a good razor (Merkur HD 34C), high-quality blades, along with a silver-tip badger shave brush and high-quality soap. Now wet shaving is something I enjoy doing each day. I do get an occasional nick, but nothing like those first shaves on the shoddy equipment. Do some research (for example, Google "wet shaving").

buying technology is always a question of what you need or want, yes you can wait and see,but then there will be sth. faster, better everybody loves and you will ask yourself the same question again and again - should I wait...untill?research, decide upon your real needs, buy and don't check new stuff untill you feel its time for an upgrade. It helped me stay focused on having fun with the stuff I own rather than dreaming of sth. else.cheers

Good website. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. I will probably go with the first one an get the software if needed. good advice. The new one looks pretty, gut I don't spend money if there isn't enough upgrade to justify the added espense.

I have a similar situation. Did you end up buying this product? If not, what do you use? I'm kind of at a loss as to what I should get :/

You can buy any first, then mix them together. This one seems to be a bit easier so it may be a better choice to get started with.

Lots of options here, depends on how much you want to spend and what use cases you need.Will you take it on planes? Will you just keep it at home?Some more information from you would help.

Hi, Alyssa; Since I'm new to buying an expensive camera, I found that the price and camera was a reasonable for a beginner. Eventually, I will upgrade once I get more into photography. As for the accessories, you are just getting the things you need to start with. Now, if you decide to break it down, one by one, every accessory is expensive on it's own. In the long run, I would say you are getting a great deal for the price. It's just the basic and nothing fancy. Think of it this way; you buy the camera on it's own, you like it a lot. So, you decide to get accessories for it. Eventually, the price for the accessories add up and you spend more than you would have, if you have gotten the Bundle. I say, it's a save if you get the Bundle, than on it's own. I hope that I have answered your question.

Thanks a ton. Very helpful. In your opinion, is this worth a DIY adventure or is there not much to be saved in calling someone to setup?

Les, thanks much. Very helpful, although I'm still torn. Yes, it would be great to hear from people with hands on experience or to see a review by a pro. I'm going on a trip in November, so will buy something before then.
