looking to upgrade my camera. I have an old Canon rebel and a separate HD video camera. looking to get an HD Video camera integrated into a digital SLR.
my local Costco has 6 good options.
leaning towards the Nikon D3300. Its seems like once you get to that one in price, the additional benefits are marginal and very expensive. but maybe i am missing something.
