Q: What's the best camera?

A: "The one you have with you"


So true in so many ways....

One thing you might want to consider is the lens format. Nikon and Cannon have bodies that take the same lens for many years - which means there is a market for them - (both the bodies and the lens) - and you can borrow and swap with friends etc. I was at an IRL race with a buddy that is a pro - It was super fun using all his super hi-zoot lenses on my camera! Of course, as many pros and knowledgable people do he uses Nikon... so we could swap (a one way swap - LOL).

I bought both the kids Nikons for Xmas last year (they've reached the ages where they actually have lives)... and they've taken some amazing photos with them while just "experimenting" and learning. The beauty of this is that we can share the lens format between the three of us.
I did not realize the lenses for Canon and Nikon were interchangeable.

Thanks for the website.
