I have attended photography class as one of my minor in college, and recently I was given a green light on getting my first dslr, but I have minimal knowledge on camera's gear, therefore I am not sure which one ease me well. I have been playing with friend's camera on and off, it is a canon 450D, I hate how you need to press another button to change the aperture, comparing to Nikon D70 which has two different separate dials for each program. If Nikon interface are the same, I will be glad to have Nikon instead of Canon, but please provide me a truthful comment. Thanks before, appreciate any reply and comment. cheers mate.

Thanks TheWandererX.

I have heard people saying that Nikon is good at capturing greenery subject where Canon captured a better skin tone color, I am wondering if this is true. As I prefer capturing landscape instead of portrait. I don't think I like either the D3000 & D5000. The Video function and the twisted screen annoyed me for an SLR, no offence though. that's my personal thought. that's why I am looking into Dxx series. I've got few friends having Canon, and I really think that I want a Nikon instead. Shall you provide me more options, thanks for the advise in advance. Cheers!
