Hey guys,
I'm new here and i'm looking to get a new and first DSLR camera in 2 months or so.
I read alot of reviews about these 2 examples and i'm in a dilema, leaning abit towards the Nikon abit more.
Now what i'm really looking for is image quality and a camera that can be good for beginners and fairly advanced skills, since i'll be keeping it for 2-3 years. The video doesn't interest me and the 720p is more than enough for a vid. here and a vid. there.
Both cameras have pros and cons:
The Canon has 18MP with the same sensor as the D90, but i read that such an amount of MPs with a small sensor isn't really good. It also has 9 focus points.
The Nikon has 12.3 MP and i read that the image quality will be identical. It has 11 focus points, also the grip is abit better.
I read that the Canon has better performance in daylight, is it true or is the quality not noticable? My kind of photography would be scenic, people, macro (abit) and objects and abit of automotive, mostly in daylight.
They say the Nikon colours are nicer and that is deals better with high ISO.
Before i heard about the 550D i was sure i'm buying the D90, now i'm abit hesitant.
As far as lenses go, i wont be getting new lenses for the first camera, i'll just stay with the kit lense. Does this mean that if i go with one brand i'll have to continue in the future? If so then i'm more familiar with the Nikon cameras abit more.
Note: both the Canon and the Nikon are in the same price range.
So, once and for all, which camera is better for my needs?
I tried searching for sample pictures from the Canon, no success.
I heard only good feedback from the Nikon. Only that in some cases the lens mount can break, but this can happen in every plastic built camera, right?
Thanks in advance...
