same here..  people say pixels dont matter, i say go for as much as your money will allow. however, having said that, the glass on the front is the most important bit of kit you will own so go for something that you can get the best and fastest glass you can afford..

Nikon Nikon Nikon.... but thats is due to my 3 Nikon cam collection making me say that. If Nikon made printers i'd have one. and the Nikon SB800 is a nice addition aswell, with a Nikon SB22 classic as a spare, with a Nikon SB600 for a slave.... and maybe the Nikon ML L3 to control them......
are any of you members working for Nikon or am i plugging for no reason!...i deserve a freebie! i need a new bag to house it all 
That was my pointless and somewhat childish input... im sure you will know what to buy, you have to have it feel comfy in the hand, and it depends what u want to go with it. You wont regret whatever you purchase...its a dslr!

Thanks again for all the advice. Today's the day and am going to get the Canon, swayed by the lens issue.
