[Crusader]

I have decided that it is time to join the bandwagon of digital photographers after finding photography an interesting hobby. I will be buying my first DSLR camera and I suspect that whatever my brand choice will be becomes my brand preference for life.

I am leaning now in two DSLR brands and those are Nikon and Canon. What do you think would be the better choice? I am looking for a starter DSLR which means it should not be very expensive since I am still beginning my journey as a photographer. Please help! Thanks!
