canon digital camera 350d image
E.C.
I have photography this semester, and the teacher would like us to provide digital cameras with at least 8MP, as well as being DSLR.
I'm going to be shooting a lot of sports, as I'm on yearbook as well, and I'd like to keep it under $200 if at all possible. I'd like something that would last for a decent length of time, as well. Any help would be appreciated :)

Your options are limited but it is possible. One recommendation (possibly the ONLY one) is a Canon XT (350D) with kit 18-55mm lens.
I am from the UK and I have seen these bodies and lenses sell for less than the $200 equivalent in £'s.
Here is an auction in the US I have just found as an example..

and here is one that has ended and is just slightly over your budget..

Up your budget to $250 and you will certainly get this camera and lens if you try hard enough. And it is also a fine camera, I used to own one.

What digital slr camera should I buy for magazine photography? I am not a professional photographer?
louise w
My partner and I have set up a local community magazine, we have been using a point and shoot digital camera, but feel that we now need to upgrade to a slr. We have no professional training in photography, so have limited knowlege on the subject. I have searched the internet for different reviews, but just seem to drown in information. Please can someone offer advice, please!!!!!
Answer
any entry point DSLR will be good enough. Something like the Nikon D40 or the Canon Digital Rebel XT/350D is perfect for a starter like you. They're pretty affordable (compared to other DSLRs that is) and it works just like any other DSLR so if you upgrade your camera to another DSLR in the future you won't find yourself in a hard time adapting yourself to a new camera.
The hardest thing to pick is not the camera - it's the lens - some lenses are specialized and there's one made for specific task, and it won't work well if you use it for another task. But at this point - if all you do is taking picture of people, I think the kit lens that comes with the two camera I mentioned above is good enough.
Finally I highly recommend a photography class for you - a DSLR is a pretty complex piece of equipment (well there's an auto mode but you won't be utilizing a DSLR's potential if you're using auto and at that point you'd better off with a point and shoot anyway) and you will appreciate what you have to learn in the photography class.
Well, I hope this helps.
