We're upgrading our camera. On our current Canon Rebel XT & kit lens, the inaccurate AF has given us a lot of frustration (like a dark-colored subject against a white background - will NOT choose the dark subject).
My husband wants to stick with a Rebel, probably the T1i. I've heard that AF is faster & more accurate with a Nikon body/Nikon lens combo. And the 3100 does have 11 AF points (as opposed to 9 points on the T1i).
I'm also leaning toward the Nikon because apparently it has better options for off-camera flash.
If I'm going to convince my husband, the better AF will be the selling point.
Anybody know if the Nikon's AF is better than Canon's, specifically for these two cameras?
Thanks again for helping me wade through the options.
