Best DSLR under $1000?

Nikon d80. Pretty much is a d200 just a little slower. What brand do you prefer ?

Nikon D40 up to the D80

For value/quality/optics, I think your best bet is the Pentax K100d Super or K10d. But Nikons aren’t bad either.

One of the main reasons i went Nikon was the quality of product and the fact that i got 3 years warrenty for only $50 AUS

how’s canon vs nikon ?

If you’re unsure, it’s really worth going to a local store, and playing with the ergonomics. They both are excellent cameras—you should get the one which feels best in your hand (even if you order it online).

thanks for the help

Sorry,I can’t answer this question because I’m only Thirteen & I don’t know what the HECK is a DSLR.
Thank you for understanding(:
