Hi everyone
I am ready to make the step up form a P/S to a digital DSLR. This camera will not be used professionally whatsoever - I'm just a beginner.
I have no equipment at all other than a P/S digital camera and a MacBook Pro laptop (if that makes a difference).
One of my main requests for the camera is that it be light weight as we tend to be active and that a beginner can learn to use it relatively easily.
Price point should also be on the entry side as I consider this a very large baby step and if I learn to use the DSLR properly I may consider upgrading in the future.
I've narrowed it down to these two:
Canon EOS Rebel T3 or Nikon D3100
Anything easier for a beginner that I should be aware of? Both brands seem to have their followers but I'm wide open at this point.
Thanks in advance for any help
