Hello all,
This is my first post in the forum. I am currently looking into getting my first DSLR as an upgrade from a point and shoot. Id like to become a photography hobbiest in my spare time. I was wondering from all of you, what is the better camera: Canon T3i or the Nikon D3100? I have NO allegience to either brand so I am open to go with either one. I do not want to spend more than $500, as I am not buying this camera to shoot professionally. I will be shooting nature/landscapes, photos of my baby boy, and pets/animals/birds etc. Basically, I would like to know what is the best value for the money out of these two cameras as well as any drawbacks from one to the other? I have read many reviews and cant come to a conclusion on either camera (I would even consider the Nikon D3200 if it far outweighs these other two). Any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated! If there is a link in the forum already covering this topic, point me in that direction. Thank you in advance!
