The great thing about this is that both Nikon and Canon gear just gets better, and better, and better. Almost regardless of which brand they support, Nikon and Canon buyers have a great choice of high quality bodies and lenses and there is every sign that this will continue. Meanwhile, the other brands are falling further and further behind these two. |
