A look for a good photography camera anybody?

Okay, well the last post I need to add to it. I'm looking for a good camera to start with because I recently broke mine, and returned the Nikon D3100, like I said before. I have a budget of $518, and I want a camcorder. That's is probably the main reason why I returned the Nikon D3100. Nikon or a Cannon? EBay, or whatever. This was supposed to be a birthday present (from my own money.) now it is a Christmaaas. Please, I need to know before Christmas!

Canon rebel XSi

but if you want video get the Canon T1i (shoots in 1080p 20 frames per second) (also in 720p at 30 frames per second) (HD)

Also if you like shooting land scapes get a nikon
but like most photographers, if you like shooting; Models, people, events, and close ups get a canon for sure.

hope this helped.
