yea i have to ask why they say the T3 is the best when its practically the exact same camera as the T3i and T4i save some features. there is seriously minimal differences in quality

You know, my issue with cannon is that I love their company, I love their CS, and I love everything about them, but their lenses and body seem a bit cheap.

On the other hand, I hate nikon. I have only ever delt with just utter pricks through nikon. However, I can not deny that they have a better camera. Everything seems so much clearer.

IDK...... I root for cannon, I buy cannon, I love cannon, but I recommend nikon.

Pretty much.

I'll just leave this here.

Now the D70 is more in between the XXD and Rebel series of Canon.

Just picked up a T3i Rebel about 2 weeks ago and I'm absolutely loving it. Although, I've collected an assortment of glass since then and it's amazing. The lenses really make the world of difference IMO.

That being said, I'll vote Canon. I do like my cousins Nikon though, just I like mine.. smile.gif
