mariettaphotog Member ![]() 155 posts Joined May 2011 Location: Georgia More info | May 25, 2011 12:17 | #8 I just switched from nikon to Canon. I will never go back. Every Nikon I ever had (and Ive had a few) hasn't been up to par. Always at Nikon getting something done to it. Image quality wasn't as great as I would want (Im talking colors, etc). The Canon just seems to fit me better. I love the rich, creamy look that canon has to it. I could put a Nikon image and a Canon image of the same thing, taken with the same lens (brand specific) and could tell you which was Canon. The canon always looked better. Allen

You aren't heavily invested in Canon... so switching won't be that big of a financial hit. Although if you do decide to switch back, taking another hit that way... it'll slowly add up. You won't know whether or not you'll like it until you try it, right? ![]() As for my family here in the mainland suggesting that I switch... ~Jamie

That said, Nikon makes great stuff. So do all the other major brands. There is no real overwhelming reason to use one brand over another. This is exactly what I keep saying! ~Jamie
