Cheap(er) Digital SLR Camera?...

...I want to buy a digital SLR camera in the near future. I've used one before, but all I have is a point-and-shoot. I'm a student, not a professional, and I don't need the best camera on the market by any means. What is a good, affordable brand or model for a "first SLR"?

Another thing is that if I cannot afford a brand new camera, I might look into buying a used one. Would you advise against this? If not, what is a good place to get a nice used, camera?

"As long as the camera is in good shape and you can not find any problem with it, you can enjoy it.

You may want to go into a camera store and hold a Nikon or Canon DSLR in your hands and see which one you like the best.

If you can afford $450, you can actually buy a new camera and standard lens.

If you look on http://www.dpreview.com, you will be able to find one that will provide you joy shooting great photos.

What you may find is that taking a class in photography will give you a much better idea of how to use a fully adjustable camera before you spend any money on a digital SLR camera"
