Canon, Nikon, Fuji, Sigma, Olympus, Sony, Pentax...which do you place your bets on and why?
I use Leica, Nikon, Hasselblad and view cameras with high end digital scanning backs for my 4x5. The scanning back creates an amazing image but is very very slow. The Nikon d2xs is wonderful but flawed with its blocked up shadow area.
The new Nikon from what I have seen and heard is great. But I would bet that the Canon technology their image or file size and sharpness is hard to beat. It is still possible hat Nikon may catch Canon but I think they are at an Corporate advantage, still for me the canon pro line is just two expensive for my budget.
Olympus Digital, still love my Minolta SLR (not auto focus) camera.
Still love slide film. Will only buy 100 speed print film - no higher speed.
Cannot imagine a life without any real film - it is still so much better than digital plus I HAVE IT TO HOLD & KEEP - digital is virtual - on a cd or my computer, not in a box.
Used to be Pentax; now Canon
Nikon is my preferred choice for 35mm.
Dependability, excellence of manufacture, technica support
Nikon for digital and 35mm. They have consistently produced the best equipment and a manufacturer that has over 50% of the commecial and industrial camera and lens market (from microscopes to telescopes) is there for a reason.
Sigma make very good quality lens if you are on a budget but recently I have gone back to the old manual Carl Ziess lens. The build quality and image feel is just timeless.
However I'm happy now using Canon or Nikon, and if its medium format then my trusty RZ67 is used.
I have been using Nikon for 40 years. I am however, not happy with the way Nikon has progressed and their superiority in equipment is overshadowed by Canon.
Nikon cameras, Fuji film when I use film, which isn't often, and Kodak paper for all our photo printing. Over the years, I have found that these work best for our needs. But, if you want to send me your new Canon digital camera for Christmas I could make use of it too.
I shoot Nikon, it just feels right to shoot with these cameras. I have shot everything from the F100, D1, D1X, D1H, D2H, D2X, D200 and D300. I love the gear and would take a lot for me to switch to the other side. I have to gripes about the other camera companies, this is just the side I choose.
Canon for everything, including all my glass!
I have a Canon 5D and I like it. Canon sound as a song...
Nikon is coming from behind with the new D3. Lookout Canon!
Nikon
Canon, it's the best.
In 35mm digital photography, Canon leads the pack. I used to shoot all Nikon when I shot film, but Canon is the leader in digital 35mm.
I LOVE BOTH NIKON AND CANON CAMERAS.
In my opinion no others can compete.
I value nikon for its images. The cameras produce lovely images. The cameras are slightly expensive but well worth the price.
Canon is just an all around great company. The cameras are durable, many, many lenses to choose from and accessories to make any still life feel alive.
Both companies are top notch and best around. |
