BiggyD, I recommend you go to a futureshop or best buy or london drugs or some other type of store with a photo/video section and just browse through the SLR's. They all have their own feel to them and everyone's got different hands, so not everyone fits everything. I've only held/used a Canon Rebel, Rebel XT and 20D and I found the older Rebel more solid feeling than the XT, and the XT was too small. The 20D feels like a tank compared to those two. I can't comment on the Nikon's.

Forgot to mention: Your buck will usually extend a lot further if you can find used equipment. A lot of people buy cameras new and then decide they dont want/need/like them, same goes for lenses.
