OK, I have been seriously considering getting a new digital camera. The 2 cameras I have been trying to decide and pretty comparable in price. They are the Canon D10 and the Nikon D100. The problem for me personally is that when I go to the usual sites to compare and read reviews, they all use a lingo I can't understand. Most of the terms used I am not familiar with what they are, so the entire comparision and review becomes another language altogether.
Maybe if I tell you guys what I want to use it for you can tell me which is best and why in a 4 year old language so I get it. What I want to use it for is for toaking pictures of family, tank and the frequent trips I make (vacation). I want to be able to print out a 11x14 or maybe bigger at perfect quality. I want to be able to take great macro shots on my tank's inhabitants. I also want something I can't outgrow over the next few years. I do not want something that requires a lot of different gadgets and attachments to be able to take a decent picture. I am not planning on spending $1500-6000+ for a lens or some bazooka looking special lens.
I briefly considered the Nikon 5700 instead, but it looks like it is pretty limited on what macro lenses and such one can use on it. Am I wrong on this? Would this be a better choice?
Please give me some suggestions as to which and why.
