I'm looking to buy a DSLR. Currently my choice is between Nikon D5200 and Cannon 600D (but personally see myself liking the Nikon better). Budget is RM3k.
I'm will be using the camera mostly for videography and also some casual shots (landscapes mostly). I prefer one that can handle low light better.
How much is the current price? I went to a local shop (Perlis) and he offer me RM2900 with the 18 55 lens, 8gb card, bag and tripod.
I'm new to all this, so hope you sifus all can help me.
Thanks!
I think if videography is involved then perhaps most will lean towards Canon but the price for the D5200 with 18-55 and said accessories is only around RM2.6k here in KL.
Is there any specific reason to lean towards Canon? I understand about the pricing in Perlis can be a rip off, but I'm willing to go up to Penang for purchase which I believe will be around the same price range with KL.
I just checked the specs again, apparently the D5200 does better fps. So I guess there's no reason you should go for either 650D or 600D.

Prefer to get a new set with the budget How bout low light handling? After looking at some video shots on Youtube, somehow I feel the canon handles low light better
That's the reason why I said people with interest in videos lean more towards Canon. But if the D5200 is able to do 60fps, that gives you more room to edit and enhance the video. Photo wise, I tried a D5200 in Nikon centre and the result was pleasant. Won't know how it fares against the D7100 but it definitely is better than the D7000.
Alright man, I've checked with alot of other people, they attribute the problem to focus and refocusing as well.
And since I'm going to be doing that alot on the d600 whose focus points are all in the center of the frame... I think I'll get the 35 f2D or the 50mm 1.8g
When focusing moving object really kinda sucky, but maybe that's because I'm using shitty lens anyway
Oh yeah btw guys, the d600 dust issue is in every model or just a large percentage?
Is it possible to test it out in the shop? Heard alot of people getting frustrated at Nikon not correcting the problem.
As far as I know, its a VERY LARGE percentage.
Not possible, it doesn't come up until some hundreds of shots are taken. And when it does, it does so quite abruptly by showing up on left corners even when you shoot at f5.6.
