Failing that, we soon realize that almost "any" DSLR is subject to the mastery of photographic techniques brought by the user of the camera. Nevertheless, there are those who seem to believe that owning a piece of high-priced camera equipment will entitled them to show off as being "professionals," which is simply not true. Anyone who wants to debate the issue of whether or not Canon or Nikon DSLRs are superior to each other or to other DSLRs; is just engaging in brand choice foolishness because you can't see the difference in the final image. If you are really on a budget and want the best quality for the money, check out the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 which is reviewed at: It just came out on November 4, 2008. It's an all-in-one 10.1 megapixel DSLR camera which includes (i) built-in image stabilization; (ii) HDTV quality video [Quicktime]; (iii) a 18x zoom [27 - 486 mm (35mm equiv.)] "Leica" lense for nature photography; (iv) up to 0.39 inch macro option; (v) up to 6400 ASA; (vi) takes up to 380 pictures per 120 min. battery charge; (vii) has a "burst speed" of 13 fps; and sells new for $270 at amazon.com. Here's an actual handheld picture of the moon: Good luck!

They have the best cameras on the market. That's why all the professional photographers use Canon, including all the newspaper photographers who abuse them totally and they never fail to work. The Nikon camera I used created Nikon proprietary files that had to be converted to JPG's before they could be read on computer. I wasted a ton of time converting files just to see what I shot. The Canon writes JPG's and RAW at the same time, if you use 2 disks in the camera. I have a Mark II DS, which does that, but you can buy one of their cheaper models that does the same thing. The Canon lenses are faster than Nikon because the focusing motor is built in the lens instead of the body like Nikon's. Therefore there are fewer moving parts and less to break. I also own 3 different Canon point & shoot cameras. That's how much I like them. Basically, they cost a little more, but their so much easier to use and the quality is imbeatable.

Nobody really answered your specific question. Yes, Nikon and Canon good, however, many consider the Hasselblad H3D the "best digital camera". Hey, if it's going to be a present might as well aim high! The D700 will seem cheap to them after you ask them for the H3D! “What is the best digital photography camera out in the market now?”
