I'm a college student who love to take pictures; but for now I'm only using a Nikkon Coolpix. And the camera is not really that great. I'm just wondering if I am going to buy a camera what is the best and affordable camera for a College Student?. A CANNON OR NIKKON? and can you recommend the MODEL.

Thanks A lot for helping me.

IHi Vilfern

I recommend DSLR. But as you know, Nikon release Nikon 1 series. I would have one near future.

If you think about buy DSLR, you better take a look at the site.

for simplicity go nikon, it's user friendly and easy to achieve your goals,

eg nikon D60 is awesome camera to step up with memory cards being cheap, and easy to achieve what want.

with cannon it's the same thing, but has a lot more criteria to under stand, with sensational results.  

the nikkon is like a mercedes benz in reputation as cannon is a lambergini and more.

for begginers as mentioned in your question nikkon D60.

before you ask i started with a nikkon D60 and moved up to a cannon 5d mk2 

Thank you so much for all your suggestions.

If your starting to work towards a professional camera, invest in the lens that will fit both your next step up camera and the one you aspire to have. A cheap camera (not really that cheap for a student) that has a great lens can produce good results while your learning. :)
