I want to get a dslr camera. but I question I have is which brand is better in the long run canon or nikon? I am looking for durability, and built quality, under $1000 bucks. Which of the two brands is better on the long run? as I intend to use the camera every day so it would have to take a pounding of pressing buttons, changing lenses. etc so it would have to last. I want to get a rebel t1i because of its resolution screen and the pixels.
I’m looking to upgrade. Of course, I’d loooove to upgrade to the 5d mk ii, but that’s just not financially possible for me right now. I’m looking in the $1ᒴ price range. I was looking at the 50D, but I’ve seen enough poor reviews to convince me otherwise. I use a 40D at work, and I love it. Although, it bothers me that I’d be upgrading to a camera that has less megapixels. Even though I KNOW that the 40D is a better camera with more options. I *could* always upgrade to the new T1i, but it’s basically the same thing as the xsi and I want to try to get away from the rebel series.
What about the original 5D? Being as the mark ii recently came out, I’d imagine the price on the 5D will continue dropping. Even though it’s an older camera, would anyone say it’s a good upgrade to the xsi?
Initially, I shoot mainly bands (live and promotional) and head shots. I also do a lot of nature and landscapes. I’m starting to touch the surface with wedding photography, which is why I’m looking to upgrade now. I’m happy enough with my xsi, but I feel like something is missing. Maybe it’s the full frame. ::shrugs::
