    What's your lens setup? If your're trying to shoot low-light @ 3.5, ISO 1600, then you need a faster lens, AT LEAST 2.8.

    Test the waters of both. Rent a body, I would recommend

    I started with a little disposable camera in 5th grade, upgrading to my dad's film SLR (Nikon), then a small digital (Sony), then a D70s, then went Canon for a while (XT, 70-200 2.8L), then the D300. I want to focus on glass and want to get into more medium-format photography with a Hassie or a Mamiya. Probably in college I would feel confident enough to get a flagship model.

    For those fanboys, fuck off. Not here. Nikon and Canon are pretty equal nowadays.

    • Seriously, I have met parents who have 1D Mk III's and a 28-70L, only to ask me why it's not taking good pictures.omgitsacamera
