Canon EOS Rebel T3i Digital SLR 18-55mm Lens Camera VS. Nikon® D3200™ 24.2MP Digital SLR with 18-55m

Canon makes a 28-300 zoom. Pretty much will do 90% of everything. Nikon does not have an equivalent lens. So if you're only going to buy one camera a versatile lens is a must.

Ok so with that being said then maybe I'm going with canon because I'm not going to invest in a ton of different lens. I'd rather have the 28-300 (one lens). And I like Chevy better.

You might not like the weight, or the price. I'm sending my 28-300 back in for service, 350.00 plus the cost of parts for repair.

I have 6 lenses so far. I'm afraid to total them all up, I'll probably make myself sick. And eventually I want one of those 600/4.5's. A single 28-300 like yours knocks out 3 of mine. Bucks ahead and no lens switching. Money well spent.

The 28-300 is the perfect lens for a person of your size, not so much for Wendi. The 400 2.8 was manageable for free hand but I would have hated to drop it.

This looks interesting and the price is right!

Forgot about that one. Nice lens, just not full frame. But that would do the trick for sure.

Just remembered. Tamron makes a 28-300/3.5 for Nikon. Bought one but never used it so I gave it to Gothalos
