Off the bat, I am new to photography. Though I was a film major in college.
sx40 or t2i...
I'd like to purchase a camera for BOTH video and photos. I have researched a bit, and the Canon SX40 is up top for me, in that price area. The Zoom is awesome, and all the effects are really cool. The sample photos and videos have impressed me so far. then there's the t2i. I guess this would spark another annoying debate between entry level DSLR vs point and shoot/super zoom.
Pictures- I take a lot of nature and landscape shots, more so in low light since its after I am off work.
Videos- Making short films for portfolio; effects would be nice, but that real film quality is most important since i have an editing program anyways.
Anyone done side by side comparisons or would recommend one over the other?
