It’s a toss up. Canon has wonderful, dependable products. I love my H/P, its refurbished, like new, and does everything I want to do photographically. Look at them.

If you’re looking for a digital camera, you can look here and find good specials, and get a general idea on price ranges for models, as well as search for new and used cameras in one place.

You can’t go wrong with Canon or Nikon (personally it’s Canon for me!)

You store thousands of pictures on your SD cards? Uh… you know you can move those off to your hard drive and re-use the cards.

For DSLRs: Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Sony (was Minolta), Olympus. probably in that order- with N and C being too close to call.

for Digicams: Canon, Fuji, Panasonic, Sony,
Followed by: Kodak, Nikon, Casio, Olympus, Pentax

maybe I missed a couple. But- don’t so much buy the brand as the camera. A cheaper Canon or Sony won’t be as good as a comparably priced Fuji or Panasonic.

Asking for an opinion between Nikon or Canon is like asking about religion. Both sides will argue until they fall unconcious. The truth is, both Nikon and Canon make fantastic D-SLR cameras.

If you owned a Nikon film SLR in the past and still have lenses, you already have a start on a Nikon kit. Almost all Nikon “F” mount lenses made will work on current Nikon digital SLR cameras. A recent exception is the Nikon D40 and D40x – they will autofocus only with Nikon “AF-S” lenses.

Canon, on the other hand, is as equally used by professionals as Nikon. They don’t have the decades of lens compatibility that Nikon does, but they do have a very developed hypersonic motor focusing system that they have used since the creation of the Canon “EF” lens mount. (Nikon uses their similar “AF-S” technology, but Canon did it first.)

Consider both brands equally and be sure to make your final decision standing in your local camera store with the cameras in your hands. Specifications and test reviews on the Web can only tell you so much. Eventually, you have to TRY the cameras and discover which one is for you.

I highly recommend the 400D from canon if you want a DSLR, if you want an exrteme good one, but just not pro, go for 30D or even the excellent 5D. If you want a smaller one; canon powershot G7! or in the even smaller range ixus 850IS. Does it show I like canon? for the smaller range fuji is also very very nice, and their design is way more pretty and elegant. But all named above are top models of their range with (to my opinion), the better quality. N-joy your pictures

Well .. Digital Cameras are now at par with film cameras. If you are using a HP and it is old, its probably time to buy a good digital. d-SLR cameras are excellent value. They produce very crisp pictures. Buy a Nikon D40 ($700) or if you have more money, buy a D200 ($1300) instead. They rock. If you are on a tight budget and cannot afford a SLR, try buying Canon S3 IS or Fuji s6000d (~$ 300-400). If even tigher budget, buy Canon A700 IS or Nikon s10 (

I hear that Canon is the best digital camera, but I personally have a Nikon digital camera. I like it fine, except the shudder speed slows drastically when I turn the flash off. Not sure why that is.
