General discussion

What dSLR do you recommend?

Jul 5, 2011 6:49AM PDT

I've been going back and forth over the Canon T2i/T3i and the Nikon D5100. I love the features on both and am looking for both good video and picture quality. It's now time for a decision. I guess it comes down to brand, and I wanted to get others opinion.

The 60 year old question is which is better Nikon or Canon?
The Nikon owners say Nikon.
The Canon owners say Canon.

Which is good because that says they are both winners.

You can't make a mistake - pick one.

I suggest you go to a camera store and get your hands on both.
Pick the one that feels the best in your hands.
