Kodak doesn’t make dSLRs…
Nikon to me is trash for entry level equipment… they seem to have the most outdated features for a really high price and gimmicks with their lack of AF motors in the bodies so you are scammed into using their AF-S lenses… expensive, bad and tied to their stuff… say no to Nikon…
Canon I like but its a little expensive… all the Canon cameras have awesome features and even better image quality but they are a bit pricey, not as pricey as Nikon, and definitely better features but lack of in-body stabilization is what make me not go with them… but if you have the $ $ to buy stabilized lenses, Canon is great
Sony is what I shoot with. While the image quality is not as good as Canon I think, the cameras made by Sony offer one valuable feature, in-body stabilization. You can buy cheaper lenses which are good for a photographer on a budget… you have the most choice in lenses as Sony will take all Sony lenses, all Minolta lenses and all 3rd party lenses. Also Sony’s live-view is the best on the market hands down? But real photographers don’t use live-view? Maybe, but it’s not a valid argument to exclude a feature. Also Sony is cheaper and to me is built more solid than a Canon. Sony has pretty bad high-ISO performance though and I think that is their main down-side…

It depends which features you want really that will be the choice between Canon and Sony. Sony is really nice if you are on a budget, Canon is cool if you can afford to buy stabilized lenses, Nikon is trash to me.

Answer by PS
Either Nikon and Canon are top brand to get.Good quality and more lens & accessories choice.

Answer by Sound Labs
Kodak dropped out of the dSLR biz awhile back.

The major players are Sony Alpha, Nikon and Canon. Pentax and Olympus have some good stuff too. They are all good, you just need to research and read all the pros and cons. It’s all too long and too much to list here. Each brand has some advantages to them, you’ll need to check it all out.

My vote for camera to watch that’s under a grand is Sony’s new A550 dSLR.

If money is super tight, you’ll have to start at the bottom with Sony’s A230, or Canon’s XS. Nikon’s d3000 is fairly cheap, I just don’t like entry level Nikon’s because they don’t have autofocus motors and some lenses don’t have motors either, that’s a deal breaker. The cheapest Nikon with a motor is the D90.

e-mail me if you have more question, I shoot with the Sony A700.

Canon and Nikon.

If you want professional full frame bodies nikon is the best.

For entry level SLRs canon is the best.

Please Suggest me the Best Camera Models in Canon or Sony Cyber shot.

I was Thinking of Canon IXUS 1000 HS, Canon PowerShot 30 IS, Sony Cyber shot TX9, Sony Cyber shot H55.

Are There any models better than these? If so Please suggest me.

Price is Not a matter.

Regards.

If your looking for picture Quality i would go with the H55 or the 30is. If you want cool features like a touch screen on the tx9 you wont have the greatest picture quality. The one that i would recommend is the h55 or the cannon sx 120is or 130is. These are the best for more zoom and picture quality except the two cannons take AA batteries that is there only down fall.

Canon Powershot SD1400IS (Elph). It has 14 megapixels, has amazing quality pics and video. Its really tiny and slim. I’ve had mine since July and have only charged the battery three times.. and taken it on several trips. The zoom is probably average for a digital camera. This camera also has cool features like color accents, black and white, fisheye, mini, and color swap. It’s quite affordable too

Answer by the_camera_guy
Canons are better. They focus on image quality (which is really the most important aspect of any camera), rather than stuffing their cameras with gimmicks and megapixels the way Sony does.

I’d also take a look at the Canon S95, which is nice little camera that will take better pictures than all the cameras you mentioned due to its larger sensor and lower megapixel count.
