Nikon D5100 buy or best lens for Canon Rebel XS?
I know many of the photographers are very loyal to their brands, but would appreciate some input here. I bought my Canon Rebel XS a couple of years to learn. I learned a lot from that camera and lens standard 18 to 55 and have taken some great pictures friendly with him, but wants greater depth of field and generally better pix especially for family gatherings (concerts fee). As candids moving portrait the like. Nikon D5100 saw and loved what he saw. But the kit alone can afford comes with a 18-55mm lens. I would need something that takes better pictures in low light. well I'm a bit apprehensive about moving into a brand that does not know, but willing to invest in the right choice. Would not it be better to invest in a camera best (Nikon D5100 to 6400 ISO with a standard 18-55 lens) or simply buy a better lens for my Canon Rebel XS (ISO1600)? If, therefore, the lens would be best?
I am always one who says he is the photographer who makes a difference, but these two cameras are really a generation away. The Rebel XS is "old" compared to the D5100. Since only the Canon lens itself, if you ever think about switching brands, now is the time to do so. Nikon vs Canon 16 MP 10 MP vs ISO vs ISO 6400 1600 – Nikon actually reaches ISO 25600 More ways to approach versus just a video playback vs No video – if you're in that situation, can also T3i look to the Canon (600D) and stay with Canon.
