Hi, I am new to DSLR cameras and I am looking for a good camera that will also have great HD video capabilities(I want to use the camera for video purpose say 70% of the time). Is this camera good for video?

I just bought the T4i deal from BH photo & video for $999.00 with 18-135 mm STM lens + 40 mm pancake lens + 55-250 mm IS lens. What should I do ? Can I return that for full refund if this a better camera ?

I confirmed that there is no restocking fee.

Buy both, send them to me, and I'll decide which is better for you. Then I'll send you back that one and keep the other as a "service fee".

But really, what do you want us to say? You're going to have to make the decision for yourself and determine which one meets your needs better.

If I knew which one is better, then I wouldn't have asked here smarty ! BTW, please buy both the cameras yourself and test them for me. Then send me the one which you like as a Christmas present.

Honestly I don't know, which one is a better combination of features and quality in terms of the price.

Great deal! Added bonus is that you can crawl through CL for Minolta Maxxum glass. I've put together a pretty nice range of 6 lenses for $400. If I didn't have an a560 that is more than adequate, I'd hop on this.

I have definitely been considering this in my purchase. The great thing about micro 4/3 is that with an adapter I can use many other lenses. I have been looking at some on craigslist. I figured I would get the 14-42 to start (one on craigslist for 80 right by me). Then I would eventually look for others. I really want the Panasonic LUMIX G 20mm f/1.7 or the comparable Olympus. Eventually I would have to have the Nokton Voigtlander 25mm .95 lens. If you Google that lens with the GH2 you can see some incredible films that have been done with it (at a price). Would also look for a wide angle 50mm.

The part is I hear it's not the best for is stills. I am going to have a daughter here in a couple months and want a camera that will be used half for doing some marketing films and the other half for family pictures and videos.

Not there either. Maybe I'm doing it wrong/

The funny think to me is that DPreivew classifies the A57 as entry level camera and the T4i as a Mid level camera

Scoring is relative only to the other cameras in the same category.
