I was just starting to have fun taking awesome pictures on my 16mp Titan 2 camera until it fell in the toilet and now the camera is fuzzy :\ (phone and everything else work fine though luckily) but im looking to spend mo more than 350/400$ unless it is absolutely worth it. My friend who is in school for photography recommended a Canon t3i rebel for a DSLR and an Olympus epl1 for just a regular SLR. Im going more toward the Olympus because it seems to have extremely good quality pics and effects and video and its not too expensive. With the DSLR I feel it would be really complicated for me to figure out because im not really experienced with them. Any suggestions?
