D5000 Nikon or Canon EOS Rebel T1i?
After a long stretch of review of the SLR cameras, which reduced it to 2. Things that seeks above all was fresh images, and the quality and reduce noise held in dimmer light. long battery life, it feels good in your hand (not too bulky), easy to use, etc. Any ideas? Nikon D5000 Pros: 12.3mp, kit lens (VR), a versatile monitor, 2 year warranty Disadvantages: not very attractive model eyes, faces, a bulky little. Canon: Pros: 15.1 MP, About $ 20 cheaper, and battery (backup), it looks good. smaller, 1 year warranty, a delay Short-timer
Go somewhere and maintain and operate these cameras for some you can see that you have a better feel for you and how each dealt of its buttons and dials. Both are excellent cameras. If the video function is of particular interest, do some Internet searches for what these cameras can do with the video. You can search youtube and Vimeo.com. I would go to photo.net (last link below is a website with an online community of great photos size has discussion areas in which to ask those with each camera what you like and dislike about their cameras also will be able to see areas portfolio would be interesting. Good luck with your decision. Marcos
