Cameras, Part 2
Amateurs worry about equipment. Professionals worry about money. Masters worry about light.
According to this quote I am still an amateur, since I still worried about my camera or, rather, my decision for the Nikon D50, despite my earlier blog entry on this topic which I wrote about a month ago. Until today.
Today I went to a big photo store and had another close look at the “competition,” the Canon EOS 350D (called Digital Rebel XT in the U.S.). I finally came to the conclusion that I had indeed made the right choice and that everything is fine the way it is. What a great feeling! No matter for which of the two you decide, you cannot really go wrong. However, I personally prefer the Nikon over the Canon in terms of handling, finish and usability, even though the Canon has a more complete feature set in some areas. In any case, above all of this one should not forget to take pictures once in a while … some of which I will show on this site in the future.
