Thank you for taking out the time to respond. You are absolutely right. I've been doing a lot of research for some time now and the more information I learn, the more I appreciate what talented photographers do and the more it is clear that the lens and the photographer's skill set are what matters most. It is definitely an art for sure! I have a new found respect for photography. I feel like a child who has just stumbled into this foreign/magical world of photography of some sorts.
I am very serious about learning every and anything about photography. But I'll be honest, I am not looking forward to the tedious task of post-processing. But I understand it is necessary.
So you mentioned the nikon would be best for those who are lazy about post-processing, are you saying that the the nikon is a little better at catching "realness" or better details?
Thanks :)
From all the reading and reviews I've done thus far, it seems like the Nikon is better for photos and the Canon for videos. Someone mentioned that Canon 70D pictures are only better once you play around with the modes? Then would you suggest this camera for someone who is at the novice stage, interested in both superb photo quality as well as video quality(beauty related)? Is it more about how one uses the camera vs the camera specs that produces the best photos? Is it worth all the hype or should I start out with something like the Canon rebel T3i, T5i etc or the Canon 60D? Or should I just start with Nikon D7100 since I won't have to do much with the modes in order to get good quality photos? I apologize for the million questions. This is all so overwhelming.
7100 also shoots in JPEG and RAW simultaneously.
As to my two cents about these cameras: D7000 for indoor photography Canon for outdoor and for videos Canon all the way. This is from my experience with both brands with several different cameras.
Canon 70D price is $999 not $199.
I couldn't imagine, that the camera was so perfectly quiet and it really blew my mind when I tried it the first time!
In video department ..canon kills ...
