[QUOTE="ToddG, post: 378080, member: 23228"] I am a Canon bigot. So, I won't get into any of the brand warfare debates. In the end, since you don't have a closet full of lenses and accessories already you are free to start wherever you wish. I would definitely say go Canon or Nikon, they will give you the greatest potential for growth. Someone said "Canon is a 1.6, Nikon is a 1.5" for crop factor ... it depends on the specific camera. My Canon 1D MkII N is 1.3, the 5D and 1Ds MkII both have full frame (1.0) sensors. And depending on what kind of photography you're most interested in, a lower crop factor might be a bad thing, rather than a good thing. I bought my wife a XTi (aka 400D) earlier this year and she loves it. It's much more lightweight and compact than the 10D she had been using or the 30D I was trying to push on her. She's been very happy with it. In particular, the self-cleaning sensor function works surprisingly well. [/QUOTE]
