I've really been getting into photography lately. I actually have a Sony A390 thats been sitting collecting dust for longer than its been in operation. I took it out recently to mess with it and I'm getting more and more interested. I was going to make my first attempt at taking night-photos with a shutter-release cable/remote and found out last night that my particular model only has 2 time lapse choices on compatible remotes - instant and two-secs. That blows. Every video, website or magazine I read to learn more... It's either talking about a Canon or a Nikon (usually Nikon). This made me really regret the Sony purchase. That blows too. I want to try to sell the Sony but I wont get a lot for it. Not what I paid, anyway. And I really dont feel like spending $700 for a new Nikon. I figure that the 2011 Volkswagen is more or less the same as the 2012, so can I just buy a used body off Ebay or something? Is this risky? Which one should I get? Theres a lot of them. Ideally, I'd spend less than $400, but is that a realistic number? And does the 2011 DSLR really differ all that much from the newest models? Thanks!
