Fight...fight...fight....

My wife asked me if she should get a Nikon or a Canon.

I went though the pros and cons then told her basically Canons are naff

She said I was biased....

She's getting a Canon.....

What with her buying a Canon and my daughter buying a Fuji, there's going to be some interesting days ahead

Cheers.

You should have referred her to tp!

I think the generel consencus here is, that Nikon is the superior brand!

You could of course also have put your foot down!?

I'd love to hear your pro's and con's.......

I would have told my wife to get what I had so I could pinch some stuff.

So what camera is she getting ?

My first thought. Well, my second after "poor women is obviously mentally impaired"

 

[wave01]

sounds like she made a good choice to me

just look at it like ,,she got lost and took a wrong turning in life , the trouble is she might go back and look for the other turning ,,,then its good-bye lenses and anything else she can "borrow"

Canon do make good photocopiers though...

 

[Nod]

I like their printers too.

Call me old fashioned, but you could, of course, just all enjoy the cameras of your choice?

 

[Buck]

Why didn't she go for a Nikon Andy so that you could share lenses? Surely, that mean you'd have been able to buy some more lenses

She already spends too much time, vicariously, on TP

She's after a bridge...and looks like she's option for a Canon.

They'd be safe anyway...

We already have a friendly competition lined up

You're old fashioned....the old ones are the best.

You might have missed the point, Viv, it's just friendly banter

. She's getting a bridge, bud, so my lenses are safe

We're off for a test at Jessops today.

Oh, and she's just told me it's my Christmas present to her Talk about mixed emotions when I buy it

THIS is the most important thing - for you and your gear next to insurance

 

[Buck]

If she enjoys it, that's all that matters

Strangely, I don't actually need anything! Might get some Lee grads

That's true.

Thing is, her photographs will probably wipe the floor with mine.

I said to her today, we can all go out with our cameras...she looked at me and said S

Cheers.
