I just ordered the Canon T2I that has 1080p video at 30 fps and 720p at 60 fps. I had a separate video camera that shot 1080p and a Canon XSI, but sold both of them and consolidated to one SLR. It's $899 with the 18-55mm lens. This was my first DSLR and I never bothered to read and understand all of the advanced settings. I used the auto mode on everything and the pictures turned out much better than a point and shoot ever did. You would look at the photos and just know how different they looked compared to a point and shoot. So now, I only have two cameras. One for video and nice quality photos and a second water-resistant point and shoot for portability and snorkeling shots.
