Canon or Nikon?

[Petraio Prime]

Mopar is Chrysler's performance brand of products. It gets into the whole Chevy, Ford, Chrysler thing. Usually Mopar guys are usually very particular about the brand. Just trying to get a rise.

I know what Mopar is lol.

I still don't understand why Mopar fans would be more likely to like Canon over Nikon (or any other brand).

Maybe I am missing something here....

Because Mopar sucks and Canon sucks.

What is Mopar?

My dad is a Nikon man and will be for life. I love my Canons and will buy them again when the time comes for replacement. I agree with Subscuck about the megapixels. Great quality is largely about image stabilization and equally yoked features. Massive photo size is not always the answer.

This has got to be the most win post so far in this mess of a thread. :thumbup:

We are lucky to have someone with your grace and wisdom in these forums.

At least someone like Derrel can actually describe in great detail why he feels Nikon is better. He also has the gear, knowledge, and experience to back up his argument.

What do you have?

You said "Canon sucks" so it must be the truth. I yield to your intelligent and well thought out statement.

Bravo!

Seriously? Suddenly a lot of your posts make more sense.

Well I'm not sure what you mean by the difficult menu buttons. I thought you could program them.

If you look through the brief history of Nikon cameras that I put up, you'll see what I am talking about, and what I mean by "Jerry-rigged". Again, I am not biased. I don't use either Canon or Nikon. I use Leicaflex SL2.

That's what I'm talking about right there! Let me ask you something, do you have any experience with the current Canon and Nikon camera line up? You don't even know what he's talking about when he mentioned the buttons layout! Canon's button layout are a pain in the ass! I have yet to seen you explain anything that's up to date. Everything you've talk about has been a trip to memory lane. So let me ask you AGAIN, can you please explain to me how Canon AF is superior to Nikon in their CURRENT lineup of cameras.

Who needs autofocus?

To answer your question, I would defer to this article:

Nikon D3 / D300 Vs. Canon

All I'm saying is that Nikon has a history of jerry-rigging...and they can't escape from it.

YES, that does answer my question. Which is Nikon current line up has surpassed canon. Thank you!

And how are you going to give me a link without reading the whole thing? What were you trying to prove there?

Here's a few quote from the article since you didn't read the whole thing.

"...current Nikon cameras offer feature and function advantages over Canon"

"The 1D MKIII is right in the D3's bore sight, and the D3 matches it or surpasses it in IQ, sensitivity, and resolution"

Please don't internalize this. It was just a joke I really don't care. :hugs:

When Canon introduced the EOS system in 1989 it was already very well thought out, with price points for various users, from the EOS-1 to the Rebel. Same with the lenses. There was the 'L' line for advanced photographers and pros, and standard lenses for the masses.

Nikon seemed to have egg on their face when this happened.

I don't get it. Why would anyone consider Nikon?

 

[shaunly]

I did read most of it.

Its basically saying that although the reviewer was a long time Canon user, he was surprised by these 2 Nikon offerings.

He also said that if Nikon was to produce a D3 body around 24 megapixels and good ISO performance, it would probably beat out the Canon 1 series.

Thats exactly what happened too lol.

Maybe he can see the future....

Yes, but to point out the obvious:

1) Canon can strike back with improved sensor technology (it's not a system thing)

2) It doesn't make the Nikon system better

uhhh.... it DOES make the system better. The sensor is the heart of the system! I'm certain that Canon WILL come back with an improve camera and basically these two company will go back and forward. But to say that choosing Nikon is choosing a inferior thinking and developing is just obscene!

Well if it was just a joke then I apologize for getting the wrong idea.

Thats not how it sounded though.

In a thread like this, all you are doing saying something like that is throwing gasoline on the fire.

Not what I meant by 'system'. I mean the lenses. lens technology, mount system, stuff not directly related to the sensor. I mean more the mechanical stuff.

I have been watching Nikon for 50 years and would never own a Nikon product. They don't get it.

you're living in the past. I can't argue with you how things where in the 50s... I can only point out the obvious, which is how things are these days.

Yes but as we all know the present is based on the past.

so does that mean Canon might screw all of their loyal customer again and switch to a completely new system?
