DSLR Guru's?

My point and shoot broke and I am wanting to purchase a basic DSLR but that gives me some freedom with manual features depth of field ect... I also want a good video recording....  My first thoughts were to go with a Canon Rebel but I felt it b/c of its bulkiness I might not want to lug it around with my two young children so then I found the Sony Nex 5 and the Olympus Pen pm1.  Can anyone recommend or give me reviews on them?  I don't want to buy them only to find out and I cannot take the nicer pics and have manuel features I would with a bigger Canon Rebel.

  • You're going to get the most control from your lenses. The Sony nex has a couple options for lenses I believe. I started with a Nikon d 60 and 35 mm 1.8 lens, iyou get used to carrying it around the the 35 isn't so bulky.
  • I have a Canon T3i. I'm still learning about it and have taken a few videos on the fly of DS. It works pretty well for videos, but is big and bulky :).
