PMFJI I use Canon and Nikon DSLRs. Personally I much prefer the user interface on the Nikon. Using Leica lenses on the Canon is OK but not too convenient, best on a tripod. The Leica quality is easy to see on the wide angles. The Canon teles are at least as good as the Leica ones I have. Nikon has the advantage of being able to use my old lenses. On balance I am undecided... So I have both. Frank --- marvin0@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Im attracted to the ergonomics and aura of Nikon, > but I only ever hear good things about Canon.
