Cam-ShoppingContemplating a purchase. Canon Digital Rebel (the 350D for UKers) or the Nikon D70. Both seem to be stunners. Both have minor failings (though the Canon's seem more major). But the Nikon is bigger. And heavier. Much heavier. I had almost been set on the Nikon, particularly because of the better burst-speed (but am I just translating that into a pointless nerd-lauding exercise) and the better flash synching and faster shutter release, but reading the size/weight stuff again, I'm suddenly swung back towards the Canon. Good old DPReview.com and their comparative reviews.
But now Nikon are targeting the Digital Rebel a bit more with the D50. Oh bugger. Still heavier though, and not even available yet, so that might make the decision for me. |
