Hello The Photo Forum!
Question: How can Nikon sell a 24.2 megapixel camera for $599.95 when Canon sells a 12.2 megapixel camera for $449.00?
I am looking around for a new camera. On Walmart's website they are offering for sale a 24.2 megapixel Nikon camera for $499.95 (regular price $599.95).
Walmart is offering a 12.2 megapixel Canon camera for $449.00.
Something doesn't seem right. I am wondering why there is not more of a price difference between a camera that takes pictures at 12.2 megapixels and a camera that takes pictures at 24.2 megapixels. Could it be a difference in quality?
Note: I was in a business for 20+ years where I took pictures with a Pentax K1000 camera. I got to be really and expert with the K1000 35mm camera. However, these digital cameras are altogether different than the 35mm film cameras.
Per Walmart's website:
$499.95
List Price: $599.95
You Save: $100.00 (17%)
Heading: Nikon Black D3200 Digital SLR Camera with 24.2 Megapixels and 18-55mm Lens Included
Per Walmart's website:
$449.00
Heading: Canon EOS Rebel T3 Black 12.2MP DSLR Camera, EF-S 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 IS II Lens, 2.7" LCD, EOS Full HD Movie Mode
(p.s. I would have included links to Walmart's website but I was not sure the administrator would approve)
