Canon VS Nikon

[fppf]

Nikon, only because the guy was 5 hours away and sold for a good price with an Ikelite housing. Looked at both, for my needs it was a wash.

As far as Mac vs PC, Mac is great for a lifetime student or the photo buff. If you want real power you need a PC. And if you question a PC's stability then you should take a tour of the test automation stands I have done. They run for weeks and weeks collecting, calculating and storing data with no problems. My PC that controls my house automation has been running for 5 years straight with no issues or reboots.

The same thing that made the PC main stream is also its biggest problem. Almost any one can write software for them, bad part is almost no one can write good software anymore.

With Mac you only get software from Mac and a handfull of company's.

There is a reason you see so many white lenses (canon) at sporting events...

and that reason is that all the Nikon photographers are out taking pictures of things that really matter...

I keed, I keed!

both are great companies and great for eachother, I would hate to see either one done away with!

:lol:


That's a myth that Microsoft would like you to believe. The fact is that I can run Mac applications, Windows applications and nearly all of the open source software for Linux and FreeBSD at the same time, on the same CPU without needing to reboot.

It would seem to me that Windows, not Macs, does more to limit your software choices.

That just means that you're in the status quo - not that your platform is better. I tend to think that I'm smarter than that.

status quo?? You sure you didn’t intend on saying bandwagon? :lol: or macwagon?

I thought this thread was Canon VS Nikon?? :smokin:

 

[NanoKat]

Canon vs. Nikon, eh? I'll take Pentax, thank you! I've got 30 years of lenses that will work with my brand new Pentax digital SLR! I've got a super fast 1.8 50mm that I can't wait to try out.

 

[ssbreef]

Pentax and fujifilm are close seconds to Canon for me.
