Don’t get me wrong. I’m a Canon guy but with Nikon releasing one after another of class-leading DSLR cameras of late, Nikon seems to be winning the game, at the moment.

Ok, it’s down there with the rest in the entry level DSLR camera and in the point-and-shoot segments, but at this time of the year, Nikon is the only brand — in my opinion — which is sitting pretty at the top of the middle-range to high-end DSLR standings.

Think Nikon D300, Nikon D3 and the latest Nikon D700 — all released within a span of one year, and at a time when Canon seems to be more interested in the mass entry level DSLR market.

Hey, guess what. I might soon convert to Nikon photography religion.

But let’s just put it this way — if I want to buy an entry level DSLR now, I will go for Canon. I will choose the Canon 450D and the Canon 1000D anytime over the Nikon D60 or Nikon D40X.

But Nikon will definitely be the choice if professional camera is what I’m looking for.

I will chose the Nikon D3 anytime over Canon’s EOS 1Ds Mark III, Nikon D300 over Canon D40D and Nikon D700 over the upcoming, yet-to-be-named, upgrade of Canon’s full-frame DSLR, the 5D.
