In this new experimental segment, we will be tracking any DSLR deals of interest for this weekend, February 22 thru 24, 2008 (Friday to Sunday).
 | Olympus E410 bundle by Cameta Cameras on Amazon | More is more in this Cameta bundle, as you get the 14-42 Digital Zuiko lens, a bonus 2gb 133x CF Transcend card, gadget bag, memory card reader, and a few trinkets. The E410 is small in a good way, but unfortunately it does not have sensor-shift stabilization. However because of its small size, it is finding uses and fans |
 | Canon 40D body only, $1150 at Amazon | See the entry right below! To summarize, the price is right. |
 | Canon 40D with EF 28-135 IS USM lens, $1358 at Amazon | The price is certainly right for the Canon 40D. It may have "lost the buzz wars" to the dynamic Nikon D3/D300 duo, but at its current price the 40D is a tempting alternative to the D300, considering the price differential |
 | Canon Digital Rebel XT with 18-55 EF-S lens, $450 at Amazon | Rebel Rebel! Your price is going down! Now at $450, you can get the D-Rebel XT (350D) with the kit lens (not the new IS kit lens obviously) for just $450. Oh my! |
 | Sony Alpha A700 w/16-105mm f/3.5-5.6 DT Lens, $1680 at OneCall.com with free 3-day FedEx shipping | Nice price as this includes the 16-105 DT lens! At least $100 cheaper than the lowest reputable seller at Amazon, and $200+ cheaper than B&H/Ado! |
| Nikon D80 Body only | The best bang for the buck DSLR for the Nikon mount! While not as advanced as the D200 or D300, it costs almost 1/2 and 1/3rd as much! | |
| Vivitar V3800N w/ 50mm f1.7, $140 at Adorama | This is a 35mm FILM SLR. And an old school at that! K-mount, hot shoe, old school! The perfect way to contrast yourself with someone running around with a Nikon D3 or Canon 1Ds | |
 | Olympus E410 2 Lens Kit with Accessory Bundle, $600, at OneCall.com, S&H starts at $19 | The extras include a 1gb eFilm card, and the Oly E410 starter kit which includes a bag, battery, filters and trinkets. For someone who is just getting started to SLR photography, or wants to give 4/3rds a try, or wants a small DSLR to go with their bigger SLRs, this is a nice bundle! |
| Olympus E-410 Single Lens Starter Kit, $500 OneCall.com, S&H starts at $16 | Same as above, but only one lens, the 14-42mm lens, and no memory card. |
| Nikon D200 body only, $1300 at Calumet Photo | Somewhere in between the Nikon D80 and the D300 lies the D200 which predates both of them. This dSLR is ideal for people who want what the D80 doe snot have, but also don't want to pay $1800 for the D300. | |
 | Sony A100 with 18-200 lens, $1000 at Amazon, various sellers | The A100-H bundle is the one with the 18-200 superzoom lens. Do the math, there are three different A100 kits listed in this table, depending on whether you need any of the lenses "kitted" with. |
 | Sony Alpha A100K with 18-70mm DT, $600, OneCall.com, free 3-day FedEx shipping | This or the new A200? That is the question! |
 | Sony A100 body only, $530, body only, free 3-day FedEx | Same as above, but body only |
 | Olympus E-500 Silver LE with 18-180mm, $800, OneCall.com, free 3-day FedEx shipping | The lens itself goes for around $425, which puts the limited edition silver body at around $375. If you like the E500 and the space-age silver that is. |
 | Olympus E330 with 14-45 lens, $400, Cameta on Amazon | An old DSLR, one of the first to have a form of Live View! Keep in mind this does not have sensor-shift stabilization |
