Best DSLR Camera.... Canon 7D or 60D.... or Nikon D7000?
g
I'm torn between Nikon and Canon. One minute you ask a camera shop and they say Nikon is best, next week it's Canon. I've done a few of the tests on the web that give you a few camera selections based on what you want to photograph (eg. Sports, Travel, Macro etc.) giving you a break down of shutter speed, ISO, Image Stabiliziation. The four cameras that came up where cameras i was already considering but it didnt really help me make the final decision.
The camera's are...
Canon EOS 5D MK II (very expensive and out of my league)
Canon EOS 7D (This one seems most suitable)
Canon EOS 60D (This was my second choice)
Nikon D7000
I've been using my girlfriend's Canon EOS 400D and i've been realy happy with the results it churns out. I'd like to go one or two up on her model and capabilities. I'm heavily considering the 7D, but it's $500 or so more than the 60D but is there much of a difference.
What are your thoughts? I've almost made my mind up, i'm on the verge and need another opinion to make the final choice.
I've practically almost ruled out the Nikon D7000, it's the cheapest though but still a decent camera out of the 4 i'm considering.
Anyone with any of these models or is a camera guru can you please give me your opinions.
Thanks in advance
Answer
When a camera store guy tells you that Nikon is better than Canon or vice versa, then he is not being honest and would tell you anything to make you buy something. Both are equals and it comes down to personal preference.
Do not expect any of these cameras do give you much better results than your friends 400D. They'll do better in low light, have a better AF system, but in terms of image quality they'll be very similar to the recent entry level cameras - these often use the very same sensor after all. E.g. the Canon T2i / 550D uses the same sensor as the 7D.
With the exception of sports/action (which is demanding on the AF system), the camera doesn't matter at all to what you want to shoot, be it travel or macro - all these depend on the proper lens, not on the camera. A good lens will easily cost hundreds of dollars or even as much as the camera itself, so don't blow your budget on the camera body.
I don't know how much sports you want to shoot, but if it's not your primary purpose, then i'd rule out the 7D (and if you do, also give the Nikon D300s a thought). The AF system of the 60D is sufficient for a casual sports shooter (9 cross type sensors are good enough, opposed to the 19 of the 7D), and you can direct the saved $600 towards a suitable fast telephoto lens. That'll give you much better results for sports than a 7D with its kit lens.
Other than that the 7D mostly has the magnesium body to offer, with its weather seals, but that's a non-issue if you blow your budget on the body and thus cannot afford the weather sealed professional grade lenses that you better should have if you want to put this to the test.
Personally i'd pick the D7000 out of all these as a good intermediate between 60D and 7D which is closer to the latter than to the former, especially if you'll be heavy on sports. One may even say that its AF system beats that of the 7D (39 AF points, 9 of them cross type, vs 19 AF points, all cross type), but that's debatable. Either one is excellent.
If you don't aim for sports that much, then also consider other prosumer grade cameras such as the D90. That'll free up lots of budget for lenses.

Aww...will the person who gave a thumb down to all answers step forward and post a correction?
