For sure... Why do you favor Nikon over Canon?

Personal preference I guess. I feel like Nikon focuses more on things like Dynamic range and the way colors and rendered to produce more realistic looking pics while canon focuses on having the highest resolution possible. I'm more interested on the the Art side of photography so I think nikons better suit my needs. If I was shooting Sports or wildlife then I would probably perfer canons.

For sure I guess I'll decide between the Canon 650D, and the Nikon D5200 for now... i feel like the 7000 series of cams might be too advanced for me...

Appreciate the input:obama:

lol...i'd see why you ask that...I drove to the park and had my cam in my car...but yeah on the daily I started just waking around wit my cam in a bag..as far as this pic, the kid was sitting there while waiting for someone playing soccer on the field, I guess. I had an idea of what I could make out of him sitting there so i got my cam and snuck in a few pics. I just tried to edit it to give it a depressing look weather-wise. This thread kinda got me back in that mode.

no shame in that...they're making them better and better now. I have both, but only use my snapshot for social events..i haaate using my dslr when at a social gathering with friends because eveeeeeryone wants at least 30 pics to feel like a superstar. If you have a decent digi cam and editing programs, I think you should be good. Less to lug around, but i've gotten use to it.
