    DoubleY got a reaction from Red :) in PS4 vs GTX 750 Ti   
    Well, technically the PS4 because it can actually play a game. A 750ti alone can't play a game.

    Just because you're 12, doesn't mean you can't have old computer parts. I have some Core 2 Duo, and a Nvidia 8800 GTS or something like that.

    I would like to preface this buying guide by saying I am going to try and be as unbiased as possible. I will not be mentioning any of the gear I have or my personal opinions. I will simply be laying out the facts for you, the reader, to make your own opinions and informed decisions.
     
     
     
     
     
    As of now, this will only have Nikon and Camera gear listed since that is all that I am personally informed with. I do not want to spread false information.
     
     
     
     
     
    I will be using the North American name for Canon Cameras, sorry for any confusion that my come from this.
     
     
     
     
     
    If you know a lot about other camera manufacturers, please feel free to PM me with all the information you know. If I feel the need, I will add it to this post.

    Nikon D3300 and Canon EOS Rebel T3i
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Both cameras have what’s called a Crop Factor, which you can read more about here. On Nikon bodies it’s a 1.5x Crop Factor, and on Canon it’s a 1.6x Crop Factor. What this means is that a 50mm lens on a Nikon body is actually about the equivalent of a 75mm lens on what’s called a Full Frame body, which you can read more about here.
     
     
     
     
     
    On to the pricing and specifications.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D3300 with a 18-55mm kit lens is currently just shy of $600 on Amazon, link here.

    Megapixels:
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D3300 has a 24.2 Megapixel APS-C 1.5x Crop Factor sensor, which allows for large amount of detail. This also means a single Raw file is around ~24MB.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Canon EOS Rebel T3i has a 18.0 Megapixel APS-C 1.6x Crop Factor sensor, which allow allows for large amount of detail. This also means a single Raw file is around ~18MB.
     
     
     
     
     
    Perceived Megapixels While Using The Kit Lens
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    So I already stated above what the Megapixel count on the Camera Sensor itself is. Now let’s talk about perceived Megapixels while using the kit, 18-55mm lens, is. The only reason I am presenting you with these facts is because most of you will just be using a kit lens. All facts taken from DxOMark Optics. A highly trusted website used by many professional photographers, one of the more vocal being Tony Northup, a Wildlife Photographer.
     
     
     
     
     
    If you don’t know what a perceived Megapixel count is, you can read more about that here.
     
     
     
     
     
    On the Nikon D3300 with the 18-55mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 7 Megapixels. Yes, you read that correctly. 7 Megapixels. This is due to the lower quality of glass used in the lens compared to higher end solutions.
     
     
     
     
     
    On the Canon EOS Rebel T3i with the 18-55mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 8 Megapixels, a slight improvement over the Nikon stock lens. Again, this is due to the lower quality of glass used in this lens compared to higher end solutions.
     
     
     
     
     
    ISO Range
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    If you don’t know anything about ISO, you can read more about it here.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D3330 has an ISO Range of 100-25,600. When shooting at ISO 25,600, you can shoot in some very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the D3300 doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Canon EOS Rebel T3i has an ISO Range of 100-12,800. When shooting at ISO 12,800, you can shoot in very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the T3i doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.
     
     
     
     
     
    So, the difference between ISO 25,600 (D3300) and ISO 12,800 (T3i) may sound like a lot, but it actually isn’t. It’s only 1 full stop of light, which you can read more about here. Don’t let those big number confuse you too much, you’ll get the hang of it!

    The Nikon D3300 can record at 1080/60p. You can see a test video here. It has no continuous autofocus capabilities while recording video, however you can use still use autofocus, just not continues autofocus.

    On the Canon EOS Rebel T3i with the 18-55mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 8 Megapixels, a slight improvement over the Nikon stock lens. Again, this is due to the lower quality of glass used in this lens compared to higher end solutions.
     
     
     
     
     
    ISO Range
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    If you don’t know anything about ISO, you can read more about it here.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D3330 has an ISO Range of 100-25,600. When shooting at ISO 25,600, you can shoot in some very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the D3300 doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Canon EOS Rebel T3i has an ISO Range of 100-12,800. When shooting at ISO 12,800, you can shoot in very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the T3i doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.
     
     
     
     
     
    So, the difference between ISO 25,600 (D3300) and ISO 12,800 (T3i) may sound like a lot, but it actually isn’t. It’s only 1 full stop of light, which you can read more about here. Don’t let those big number confuse you too much, you’ll get the hang of it!

    I figured some of you would be interested in video production, so I will include this section.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D3300 can record at 1080/60p. You can see a test video here. It has no continuous autofocus capabilities while recording video, however you can use still use autofocus, just not continues autofocus.

    Both cameras have what’s called a Crop Factor, which you can read more about here. On Nikon bodies it’s a 1.5x Crop Factor, and on Canon it’s a 1.6x Crop Factor. What this means is that a 50mm lens on a Nikon body is actually about the equivalent of a 75mm lens on what’s called a Full Frame body, which you can read more about here.
     
     
     
     
     
    On to the pricing and specifications.

    So I already stated above what the Megapixel count on the Camera Sensor itself is. Now let’s talk about perceived Megapixels while using the kit, 18-55mm lens, is. The only reason I am presenting you with these facts is because most of you will just be using a kit lens. All facts taken from DxOMark Optics.

    Intro
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    I would like to preface this buying guide by saying I am going to try and be as unbiased as possible. I will not be mentioning any of the gear I have or my personal opinions. I will simply be laying out the facts for you, the reader, to make your own opinions and informed decisions.
     
     
     
     
     
    As of now, this will only have Nikon and Camera gear listed since that is all that I am personally informed with. I do not want to spread false information.
     
     
     
     
     
    I will be using the North American name for Canon Cameras, sorry for any confusion that my come from this.
     
     
     
     
     
    If you know a lot about other camera manufacturers, please feel free to PM me with all the information you know. If I feel the need, I will add it to this post.

    The Canon EOS Rebel T5i can record at 1080/30p. You can see a test video here. It has continuous autofocus capabilities during video.
     
     
     
     
     
    Nikon D7100 and Canon EOS 70D
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Both cameras have what’s called a Crop Factor, which you can read more about here. On Nikon bodies it’s a 1.5x Crop Factor, and on Canon it’s a 1.6x Crop Factor. What this means is that a 50mm lens on a Nikon body is actually about the equivalent of a 75mm lens on what’s called a Full Frame body, which you can read more about here.
     
     
     
     
     
    On to the pricing and specifications.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D7100 with a 18-140mm kit lens is currently just shy of $1,400 on Amazon, link here.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Canon EOS 70D with a 18-135mm kit lens is currently $1,450 as well on Amazon, link here.
     
     
     
     
     
    Megapixels
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D7100 has a 24.1 Megapixel APS-C 1.5x Crop Factor sensor, which allows for large amount of detail. This also means a single Raw file is around ~24MB.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Canon EOS 70D has a 20.2 Megapixel APS-C 1.6x Crop Factor sensor, which allow allows for large amount of detail. This also means a single Raw file is around ~20MB.
     
     
     
     
     
    Perceived Megapixels While Using The Kit Lens
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    So I already stated above what the Megapixel count on the Camera Sensor itself is. Now let’s talk about perceived Megapixels while using the kit, 18-140&135mm (respectively) lens, is. The only reason I am presenting you with these facts is because most of you will just be using a kit lens. All facts taken from DxOMark Optics. A highly trusted website used by many professional photographers, one of the more vocal being Tony Northup, a Wildlife Photographer.
     
     
     
     
     
    If you don’t know what a perceived Megapixel count is, you can read more about that here.
     
     
     
     
     
    On the Nikon D7100 with the 18-140mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 8 Megapixels. Yes, you read that correctly. 8 Megapixels. This is due to the lower quality of glass used in the lens compared to higher end solutions.
     
     
     
     
     
    On the Canon EOS 70D with the 18-135mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 8 Megapixels. Again, this is due to the lower quality of glass used in this lens compared to higher end solutions.

    The Nikon D7100 has an ISO Range of 100-25,600. When shooting at ISO 25,600, you can shoot in some very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the D7100 doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.

    I would like to preface this buying guide by saying I am going to try and be as unbiased as possible. I will not be mentioning any of the gear I have or my personal opinions. I will simply be laying out the facts for you, the reader, to make your own opinions and informed decisions.
     
     
     
     
     
    As of now, this will only have Nikon and Camera gear listed since that is all that I am personally informed with. I do not want to spread false information.
     
     
     
     
     
    I will be using the North American name for Canon Cameras, sorry for any confusion that my come from this.
     
     
     
     
     
    If you know a lot about other camera manufacturers, please feel free to PM me with all the information you know. If I feel the need, I will add it to this post.

    If you don’t know what a perceived Megapixel count is, you can read more about that here.
     
     
     
     
     
    On the Nikon D3300 with the 18-55mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 7 Megapixels. Yes, you read that correctly. 7 Megapixels. This is due to the lower quality of glass used in the lens compared to higher end solutions.
     
     
     
     
     
    On the Canon EOS Rebel T3i with the 18-55mm kit lens, the perceived Megapixel count is 8 Megapixels, a slight improvement over the Nikon stock lens. Again, this is due to the lower quality of glass used in this lens compared to higher end solutions.
     
     
     
     
     
    ISO Range
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    If you don’t know anything about ISO, you can read more about it here.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Nikon D3330 has an ISO Range of 100-25,600. When shooting at ISO 25,600, you can shoot in some very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the D3300 doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.
     
     
     
     
     
    The Canon EOS Rebel T3i has an ISO Range of 100-12,800. When shooting at ISO 12,800, you can shoot in very low light situations, which can be very useful. However, you will start to see what is called noise, which you can read more about here. Anything beyond ISO 3200 or 6400 on the T3i doesn’t look very pleasing and is not recommended unless absolutely necessary.
     
     
     
     
     
    So, the difference between ISO 25,600 (D3300) and ISO 12,800 (T3i) may sound like a lot, but it actually isn’t. It’s only 1 full stop of light, which you can read more about here. Don’t let those big number confuse you too much, you’ll get the hang of it!
