I use a Canon G6 primarily for taking pictures during family vacations and outings. I love the camera and have taken decent shots with it, but I always find myself not using the flash as I seem to get better results by disabling it. Problem is, as expected, some of my pictures get too dark.
I have an old Nikon 50mm f1.4 with my film SLR (since buried in the garage!). I remember taking great shots with that lens even without using flash when my first kid (now 13!) was just a baby. I am thinking that perhaps I can use the prime lens with a newfangled DSLR?
I am just a casual photographer and want something extremely light weight, easy to use, and can accept interchangeable lenses. With lots of automatic, noob features for taking family pictures. Is the Nikon D50 the ticket? Or perhaps the D40?
Thanks in advance for any information.
