What canon camera or nikon should i get?

Thats a big spending range! There is no doubt about it your will get more features in the $350 range (if I may $10 more of your money!). I recently was presented with the same decision. The Nikon had a few more features. I bought the Nikon. I could not get a decent picture on the preview screen. All the whites were over exposed!(Yes, the white balance was set, right!) I was unable to contact Nikon. I returned the camera and purchased the Canon. I am very happy and my 11×14 print from Costco was sharp as a tack! If you have read any of my reviews, I recommend having an 11×14 print made to check quality. I don’t like checking quality on my expensive computer monitor as I purchased a camera for prints. And displaying my work on the walls is much more gratifying!
