just used the search to dig this back up as i wanted to ask a question about a budget DSLR and this kinda suited what i wanted to know. was all taken on the G10 after reading this till i saw sharkstar's comment about poor performance in low light.
my new job involves alot of travel and i've never really been able to afford a decent camera up until now, i've been using an old minolta 7000 of my dad's with a single minolta af28 lense.
now i have the means to get a better camera i wanted a dslr, nothing too expensive for the fear of muggings and theft (i will be working in some pretty ropey places).
the g10 seemed interesting but i want to take alot of pictures at night so performance in those conditions is important. am i right in thinking this takes me into DSLR territory? if so is the nikon 3000 the kind of thing that would suit? the reviews i've read have been positive...
the appeal of the g10 was its compactness but i guess a dslr and a couple of lenses i could cope with.
