Period. We know not everyone is prepared to drop $2,000 to $3,000 on a camera body these days, but if you're thinking of investing for the long haul and, more importantly, have a good collection of either Nikon or Canon lenses, these are the two cameras you want to look at."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1235708287.usr18286.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>This is a very good comparison of the two full frame cameras from Nikon and Canon.&nbsp; And the article gets it exactly right - these are the cameras to own (if you have the cash).&nbsp; The article does a good job of comparing all the features and the sample photos are amazing.&nbsp; Check it out!</p>
