- OR -
First off - I know comparing these cameras are like apples and oranges as far as many aspects go, but they're the 2 I've got my eye on
I'm debating between getting a Nikon D600 or a Fujifilm X E1. If I go with the Nikon I'd pick up the 50mm 1.8 and it would be my only lens for a while, because it would pretty much exhaust my budget. If I go with the Fuji I'd get the 18-55 kit lens (not bad, it's 2.8-4.0) and then after seeing what focal length I gravitate towards, pick up a prime around Christmas time.
I like to shoot "street "photography" aka just walking around
I like to take pictures of my dog
I like to bring my camera when traveling and I tend to take a LOT of pictures (a LOT to me = 100-300 whenever I bring it out)
I shoot indoors and in dim lighting fairly regularly
I like camera's because I enjoy photography, but I like them just as much because I'm addicted to gadgets.
I'm leaning towards the Nikon because:
-it's full frame
-it's more versatile
-there are tons of lenses available
-it's weather sealed (not sure if I'd need it, but I like the idea)
Negatives of the Nikon:
-the buy in price, and price of lenses
-ginormous file size for pictures
I'm leaning towards the Fuji because:
-it's got great image quality
-it's cheaper
-it's much smaller (I feel like I'd bring it with me more often)
-it's much more discreet
Negatives of the Fuji:
-slow af
-limited selection of zoom lenses
What camera would you guys go with? Any feedback/input would be appreciated.
