I swing both (and many more) ways. I am all about the lens not the camera, so I use a Sony Nex and have some lovely lenses that span multiple companies. My current favorite is the always lovely Helios 44m-7. A pre-wwii carl zeiss biotar knockoff. obligatory link to photos.

That said my second favorite lens is the Canon FD 50mm 1.4 S.S.C. for it's sharpness even wide open, ability to see in the dark and great color rendition.

Just scored a Mamiya Pro medium format camera and I've been impressed with it so far.

Being a newbie, I went with a Canon because I've never heard of Nikon. What, is it some kind of gray market camera?

If cameras were food then Nikon would be bacon and Canon would be quorn.

The main difference is that Nikon produces great equipment, while Canon produces great equipment.

But should I buy my Canon/Nikon from a Democrat or Republican, and should I process those files on a Mac or PC?

(Biased, passionate answers only please).

Bacon

I have too many, I'm beyond just one brand; my most recent - a vintage Kamerawerk and a 360 Spinner.


(Canon Electronics apparently makes scanners etc. not cameras, although the speed walking down a hallway seems odd unless it's a Friday afternoon.)

Canon DOMINATES, and I mean DOMINATES, the serious market for photocopiers. Canon makes a damned fine photocopier--now THAT cannot be disputed!!!! Plain paper, B&W, or color, Canon photocopiers ROCK! Canon photocopiers make secretaries, temps, interns, executive assistants, and mailroom clerks worldwide weak in the knees. Nikon on the other hand is not a computer electronics company, unlike the majority of other Japanese companies that sell a few cameras. Nikon is different--they are the last remaining "imaging" company in the camera business in Japan. Sony and Panasonic,for example, make some damned nice clock radios.
