Here are some more information for Canon Nikon:

The Canon XS is still strong in the Digital SLR market.

In fact that is a total understatement. The Canon Rebel XS is actually the number one selling Digital SLR at Amazon! This camera was first introduced in 2003 and it is still dominating the market.

What is it that keeps this entry level DSLR at the top of the heap?

The reasons are speculation because you would have to do an in depth research evaluation to get the real answer, and we are not in a position to perform such intense data research.

However, there are a bunch of comments at the online stores where we can read users' opinions to find out what they thought about the product, and many will tell why they are happy with it. So, with that in mind, here are some of the speculative answers to this question.

1. Great image quality - Canon has long been a leader in producing excellent quality in their Rebel line of digital SLR cameras.
2. Digital SLR control at a great price - The price of this camera has historically been among the lowest prices, and as new models are released, the price goes down.
3. Plenty of megapixels for the ability to print large photos.

Let's face it, not everyone who buys a new high end camera is looking for every possible bell, whistle, and other piece of bling. There are those who are totally satisfied to get just what they need to take great pictures. The Canon Rebel XS does just that.

Another plus for this model is that it is very basic and it allows a new digital SLR user to learn the ins and outs of camera control with the ability to fall back on total auto (plus they get to do it for the minimum price). The camera in "program mode" gives awesome photos.

So the Canon Rebel XS is a top seller, but it is also in the "Top 10 Digital SLR Cameras" list - a list of cameras chosen for their ranking by users, not necessarily because they are best sellers. It is in there with the likes of many of the big hitters like the Nikon D700 and Pentax K-7. Pretty amazing in more ways than one.

Canon Vs Nikon - Again - Canon Rebel T2I Or Nikon D90

The camera world is all about comparisons. If you look at user forums, you will see that each camera is compared to every other camera that has similar features.

And of course, the Canon - Nikon debate is at the top of many of these arguments.. er.. comparisons.

Most recently, there is a discussion about the merits of the new Canon Rebel T2i (aka 550D) versus almost any other model including some of its own siblings. However, with this writing, we will take a peek at some similarities and/or differences to compare the Canon Rebel T2i vs the Nikon D90, since the Nikon also boasts having video capabilities, as does the Canon model.

At the top of everyone's list is the sensor size. In this case we compare a brand new Canon 18 megapixel sensor with a Nikon 12.9 megapixel sensor.

When we discuss pixels we generally think that more is better. However, this is not always the case. When you get to a certain level in the pixel count, you need to take into consideration the quality of the pixels rather than the quantity. Canon has added an additional 3 megapixels to the same size sensor found in the T1i, and they have done a good job of re-engineering the pixels so that they are of better quality. This has improved the image quality as well as the possible image size. But how many people actually print a photo that is 17 x 11.5? This is the size you could print at a resolution of 300 ppi (pixels per inch).

In comparison, the Nikon has a sensor size of 12.9 megapixels. Add to this a sensor that is actually physically larger than the Canon sensor, and you have the possibility of an image that prints with better quality.

This is very highly technical in nature, but suffice it to say the the Nikon D90 will produce images that are quite large and are considered by some to be of better quality than those produced by the Canon T2i. Now, that information is based on some very discerning technical evaluations. To the casual viewer, there may be no difference at all between the two.

Next, let's consider the movie mode, since this is the biggest marketing point for the new Canon. Right up front, there are no critics that will not admit the movie mode is superior on the Canon Rebel T2i compared to the Nikon D90. You can capture video at a whopping 1920 x 1080 which views beautifully on your HDTV. Add to that the new stereo sound input and the ability to attach an external mic and you have some pretty impressive video. The Nikon will capture 1080 x 720 at 24 frames per second. Not quite as impressive, but still good quality. Now, the only drawback to the larger format is the memory required in the camera's storage card and on your computer once you download. So, is it really necessary to go for that large format video? Your choice.

Another feature that you may want to consider in your choice is something called Live View. Both cameras have this feature, but the Canon has added something not available in the Nikon. Actually two things. First, you can turn on a grid that divides your screen into thirds. This is a handy feature for composing your photos using the Rule of Thirds to get a more pleasing photo layout. Additionally, with the Canon, you can zoom in Live View to 5x or 10x size to check the focus of your shot. You can only imagine how much this can help eliminate out of focus shots.

There are other features to look at, and I suggest that you do before making your choice.
A major consideration is whether you already own a previous model of either brand. If so, you will definitely save money by simply upgrading to a newer model so you can continue to use your lenses.

However, if you are buying your first Digital SLR camera, you can't go wrong with either model. Image quality leans toward the Nikon, but the Canon (as with all the former Rebel models) is recognized as having superior image quality as well.

So, who wins when you compare the Canon Rebel T2i vs Nikon D90? You do, no matter which one you choose.

One more thing... price. The Nikon D90 costs a couple hundred dollars more.

What is the BEST Canon or Nikon digital camera for MOVIE's w/SOUND and in LONG LENGTHS?

Hey there! I am looking for a Canon or Nikon digital camera that records long, good quality movies with sound. Can you recommend?

I would get the Canon Powershot TX1. Most compact digital cameras shoot video at 640 x 480 but this one shoots at 1280 x 720. That's a huge difference. The sound is in CD quality. It can shoot nonstop up to 4GB (which is only 13 minutes as the highest setting).
