[QUOTE="CEN7272, post: 261155, member: 13041"] Pardon my ignorance... I have a Nikon N65 and I love it. I also have a point and shoot digital camera. I'm looking to combine the two worlds and get a digital SLR. I've been holding back because of the cost...then I had an idea. I realized that I could get just the camera body and then use the lens off my N65. Then I got to thinking, do I need to get a Nikon or will Nikkor lenses work with any other cameras. I've been mainly looking at the D50 because of my price range. However can I be looking at other brands. When they say that the Nikkor lenses only work with Nikon is that the same as a car company saying that you should only buy their parts for your car, when in fact another brand will work just as good if not better? For the record, the reason I want a digital SLR is because I'm trying to get back into photography. I had taken classes back when I was in school and I want a camera that will allow me more adjustment options. Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated [/QUOTE]
