The novice photographer, both of which want to buy a compact-system camera, or if they want to directly choose a camera with a professional impression, that they want to have a DSLR camera, then they will feel a dilemma, whether choosing Canon or Nikon camera. Do you also feels the same way?
It is natural that, since several decades, both Nikon and Canon are the main players, especially in the world of journalism. Perhaps you often pay attention to the photo journalists who cover sporting events or political events, even in the event of celebrities, then you will see dozens of journalists who carry a Nikon or Canon DSLR camera, which is equipped with a telephoto or zoom lens. Similarly, if you are watching a movie, often there is a scene where the photojournalist and photographer who brings a camera Canon or Nikon.

In addition, Nikon and Canon have become a unique myth, that to make the best photographs, there are only two "major religions", ie Canon or Nikon. But okay, although you can find on the sophistication of the other famous brands, so on this occasion I would like to give a review about the comparison between Canon and Nikon. After that, you can conclude to choose one of them, or that you will choose another brand because of you, probably do not want to get stuck in the "ancient myths" about Canon and Nikon.

There is a special note for the novice photographer, then you need to remember the sentence I quoted from PCmag.com, that If youre a first-time SLR shopper youre purchasing more than just a camera, youre buying into a camera system. This means you have to make sure that the DSLR camera would you buy it for the long term. At one time you would have to buy additional lenses, camera accessories, filters, flash, tripods, and other add-ons .By ensuring to choose Canon or Nikon, to choose one brand, whether Canon or Nikon, then you can develop your creativity to the next level, you can even seriously to become a professional photographer.
I want to give you the information that I got from craftsy.com (written by Nicholas Donner), namely about your reasons for choosing Canon or Nikon, but I did not direct you to vote only for reasons mentioned below. You who have the power to decide.
1. If you have already invested any money in lenses for one system, it makes some sense to stick with it, unless you can cash out your gear without losing too much in the process.
2. Canon has had a larger market share for about 10 years now, which means there is a larger inventory of used gear on the market. If you are shopping on a tight budget and are willing to buy used, this may work to your advantage.
3. If you know someone who has a set of lenses for one system or the other, you may be able to borrow or trade more easily.
4. If you work as part of a team or your employer is invested in a system, it’s helpful to be on a similar system. Nikon and Canon have small variances in their capture of color. If you are post-processing groups of photos from both cameras, it could be difficult to maintain consistency among all your images.
For some people, it comes down to the way the camera feels in your hands and if the menu options are intuitive. Richard Donner said that he bought his first Canon DSLR because he was comfortable with the menu after having used a Canon compact camera.

Thus, prior experience can sometimes affect a persons decision to buy a particular brand. My neighbors 10 years ago only bought him to replace any Toyota brand cars, so did my friend, very fanatical at Ford, while others are a lot of people who want to try other brands. I myself have used Nikon, Sony, and Olympus. If you are not a fanatic on a brand, then you can explore and compare different brands of cameras, until you find the right feeling when using a camera.
In the world of cameras, it turns out there is a myth to believe that Nikon is perfect for shooting landscapes, while Canon is suitable for shooting of the models in the studio, and various other myths. Perhaps you are also severely affected by the sights on television when you watch the game of football, baseball, basketball or athletics, then you will see there is a predominance of certain cameras used by sports journalists. The novice photographer will probably be affected by the situation, as if the dominant DSLR camera is the best product to choose. But you have to believe, that the person behind the camera is the main determinant of outcome incredible photographs.
As a final note, there is no definitive measure to settled on a Canon or Nikon. I just believe that both Nikon and Canon are a leading company that strongly believes in their product that has a high quality. They definitely want to satisfy the photographers, both amateur and professional photographers, so Canon and Nikon will always compete to create a variety of cameras, lenses and other accessories to support your activities to become a great photographer in the future.
