Folks,

What will be the best one if we have to choose Nikon D7000 and Canon 7D? Nikon D7000 is cheaper than Canon 7D,(In price of 7D we can get Nikon 7000 + extra lens) and i Heard this Nikon Beats Canon 6D and it is in compare to Canon 7D. When I google it, only few differences like megapixels and difference of shots per secs of 6 and 8. However, Nikon has better quality. etc etc. So, not really a big difference. I am thinking to buy either one of these. ( I am feeling hesitation cause i've been using only canon from a long time)Does anyone has experience on both of these. Please lets share. 

 Atomic Bro, 

I had a Canon point and shoot and it was a great camera. Then I upgraded to Nikon D90 and it is a sweet camera as well. Although, I cant compare point and shoot against the DSLR, I think both Canon and Nikon would be almost similar qualitywise. So, I would say but the one which gives you a better deal. Hope that helps (at least somewhat).

Jacksparrow,
You can send your picture and description in my email at info@dailyphotographytips.net and I will post it on our website.

About macro lens,
If you want to upgrade your camera to FX format in future, I will suggest this,
Nikon 60mm 2.8G

But if you are not planning to go with FX format and want to stay with DX format camera (D90, D7000, D200, D300 etc) then I will say this,
Nikon 85mm 3.5 G

Atomic,
I do not have any experience with Canon camera. In fact I am looking for someone who can write about Canon on my blog. Anyway, but in my 3 years experience with Nikon, it has more flexibility to choose lenses and it's CLS (flash technology) is amazing. Nikon vs Canon is like Coke vs Pepsi. Canon users say, it is more easy to control button and easy to navigate and Nikon users say, it has best innovative and best technology.

If you are interested in photography and planning to upgrade camera in future, better to stick with one whether Canon or Nikon or Sony or Olympus because when you buy lens, you can use that in another body (it is 100% true with Nikon but not with Canon). If you buy DX (small size sensor) canon camera and you upgraded to full frame FX version of canon, you have to buy lenses that are compatible with FX format but Nikon allows you to use DX lens on FX camera and vice versa. I will say Nikon ( I may be biased in this case because I have never used Canon camera).

Hope it helps.

Appreciate your comments, guys.

The original of the first picture had a better exposure, although I still don't think it would be en par with better photographers' standards. I played with it a little in Picasa to add more shadow -- perhaps a wrong decision, but it may have reflected my mood then. I must have been feeling gloomier then. :D Your suggestion is duely noted and much appreciated, Umesh!

Also, would you know what would be the Nikon D90's equivalent lens (specially the emboldened feature below) of:

Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.8 II Autofocus Lens

• Fast f/1.8 Aperture
• 46-Degree Angle of View
• 1.5' (0.45m) Close Focusing Distance
• 52mm Filter Size

Poonte,
This is alternative for the lens you mentioned,

Nikon 50mm 1.8D AF
