Better Value? Used/Exclnt-Cond Canon 40D ~$500-600, or Refurbished-by-Nikon D90 for ~$650-750?
I want to upgrade from a fixed-lens Canon G6 to a well-built Canon or Nikon DSLR, and not a budget-level entry-level model.
Don’t want to spend more than about $750 for a camera body — any money past the cost of the body will go toward lenses, flash, filters, etc.
[Not currentlly interested in shooting video, although I suppose the video with the D90 could potentially be considered a bonus.]
Should I get the cheaper 40D, and start investing in Canon’s Lens System [frequently said to be a better-value than Nikon's]?
Or is the D90 worth the extra $150 or so for it’s superior sensor (at least according to dxomark.com)?
Which is the better camera-decision for the money — bearing in mind that the $150 saved by buying the Canon would go toward a prime lens (probably starting with a Canon prime lens in the 35 to 50mm range?
Thanks for your answers!
Both brands are fantastic – brand loyalty attests to that. Every Canon owner will tell you to buy Canon, every Nikon owner will tell you to buy Nikon. That alone tells you that they are both doing it right, being able to keep their customers happy.
Both companies are very similar, but each have a few little details that are slightly better than the other.
Really, it comes down to personal preference. Narrow it down to a couple of models, then go to a store where you can hold them both.
Think about friends and family – if you can borrow someone’s lenses and/or learn from their experience, it may be worth going with their brand.
You won’t go wrong with either one (says the Canon girl who loves her Canons 
What is MUCH more important is your knowledge. Make sure to do a LOT of learning and research before you spend money on a DSLR – if you don’t know exactly what you’re doing, you’ll most likely regret many of your purchasing decisions a few months later.

Canon Compact Digital Camera or Digital SLR?
If you’re in the market for a camera, the only thing you might be thinking is that you want the best Nikon cameras or there is no way you ever want to purchase a refurbished Canon camera. Instead of concerning yourself with having the best and most stylish camera, you need to consider your needs and learn about what some of those tech specs actually mean. Just because you can afford to buy Nikon cameras that cost $600, doesn’t mean it’s the right camera for you.
The big question is whether to get a compact camera, also known as a point and shoot, or a digital SLR camera. Sometimes people might be tempted to go with the digital SLR simply because they feel the need to own the best of the best or because they want that high quality. However, when they finally purchase it, they have no idea how to tap into the full potential of the camera. If you’re looking for something that is easy to use, a point and shoot is probably the camera for you. Although your pictures may not look as good as a professional’s, there are so many compact cameras available that can live up to high standards.
Compact digital cameras are perfect for vacations, family functions, and any get-together with friends. They are sleek and convenient to carry. You can find ones for under a hundred dollars, but if you’re concerned about quality and features, you can find ones for a few hundred dollars. The more expensive ones are still good for amateur photographers. Canon and Nikon compact digital cameras are two of the top brands, so definitely place them high up on your consideration list.
What about digital SLR cameras? Who needs those? Well, obviously professionals are going to use them, but photography enthusiasts are going to want them too. If you’re not a professional, you should really enjoy photography or being willing to learn about it. There’s no point in spending all that money if you don’t even know about shutter speed or ISO. A digital SLR will be a great investment though and will last for years, as long as you take care of it. The camera will offer excellent quality and with the purchase of interchangeable lenses, you can take a wide variety of shots.
For those interested in a digital DSLR, you need to consider lenses, image stabilization, exposure, and shutter speed. Before you set your heart on that new Nikon camera, how many lenses are available for that model? Will it automatically compensate for lack of light? Find out about these main features first before you worry about all those nice little “extras” like in-camera editing. Most digital SLRs today also have the capability of recording in HD so you can eliminate the need for carrying a video recorder. If you want the professional camera without such a high cost, many stores sell refurbished Nikon cameras or Canon cameras. With a little bit of research and thought, you can find the best camera to suit your needs.
