SLR peoples.Canon Rebel t1i vs Nikon D5000? Purchase made :)

[foss]

so far given my budget, I've been looking at these:

T3 Canon - fav
T1i Canon - 2nd

Nikon D3100

These are all in my price range. I would like your professional input on the above and why you would choose. I'm personally leaning on the T3, dunno what your opinions are but really appreciate some direction.

ima noob to this phototakouter ting and wanna get me a cheap reliable camera that could take out good quality photos, what average price and best choice? options to google

[meccalli]

They would all take excellent pictures, as i always say, If you have no specific thing you're looking for in a tool...Go take all for a test run..see how it feels to you and buy it. Dont be fooled by marketing guys please.//though i must say the noise handling is terrific on teh d3100 for that price..but im a nikon junkie ha ha >.>

K so the T3i was suppose to make the older T2i price drop ....instead the T2i price went from 760 to 800 US the same month the T3i is launched

wtf?

SLR shortage, prices going to go up only... Canon and Nikon not shipping right now because of the quake in Japan.

Is either wait it out, and I hearing all kinda estimates that by next 3 months things will normalize, but you know how prices like to go up and not come down. or buy now before things really get high, but you have the interest.

Foss.. the talking to yuhself thing again eh....

How many threads wil we bat out this same issue?

[foss]

but this is a new inquiry

[Bacon]

If anyone interested my D5000 will be in the Country early June....Lokking for around $4100 depending on the rates at that time.

[BlueIce]

well the t3i entered at 899 , and its holding

the t2i was 760 just b4 the tsumani and now its crossing 800.

might as well pay 100us more and get the flicking t3i , but most places are sold out on both the t2i and t3i.

[BlueIce]

got the t3i a couple weeks ago

price gone up to 950 now though

Welcome to the poor man club

hoping to upgrade to either a 7d or 70-200mm L f2.8, later this year....decisions decisions...

[tr1ad]

if the t3 or whatever is that price why not add more and go 40d, 50d, 60d

[RBphoto]

hoping to upgrade to either a 7d or 70-200mm L f2.8, later this year....decisions decisions...

And why not both??? Killer combination.

[Aaron 2NR]

^ thats about $3200 US.......pocket eh that deep lol....if i go with the new camera, id keep the 40d as a back up...if i go with the 70-200 f2.8 id sell the 70-200 f4

[Aaron 2NR]

doing a comparison between the Canon 40D, Canon 60D and Canon 7D

http://www.dpreview.com/products/compar ... anon_eos7d


The only major difference between the 60D and 7D is

Number of focus points
LCD dots
Continuous drive (fps)


and the 7D cost $500 US more.....

[trini mk5]

but some reviews prefer the 50s over the 60d, because the 60d is more focused on video and isnt much of an improvement over the 50d in terms of "shooting"

[Aaron 2NR]

no other reviews???
