Nikon or Canon? For video?

OK I'm on budget but I want to buy a digital camera today for Cyber Monday. I don't want to spend more that 3, 000. I want a camera that has really good video resolution. I'm clueless for what to look for… I was looking at these two cameras but I still don't know what can be better to make small music videos. Help.

Nikon D600 24-Megapixel DSLR Camera

Canon EOS 5D Mark II - 21 Megapixel Digital SLR

I would choose Canon for video because Nikon is mostly still photography.

Nikon cameras have always been of better quality in my opinion.

Nikon.

If your budget is really $3000.00, quit looking @ DSLR's & find a Sony HVR series camcorder. It makes no sense to spend that kind of money on a DSLR to shoot video.

If your whole goal is to shoot video, buy a video camera.

Here is why

Spending $3, 000 on a dSLR to shoot video leaves you no room for the added cost of the other accessories you need to make it a viable video camera.

If you are buying a dSLR to principally shoot stills and from time to time record a short video, the go for the camera with the best sensor performance.

When I shoot video, I rent one of the 3-CCD, pro video cameras.

Sony's SLT's from the A57 upward will beat the video quality of any Still Nikon or Canon, short of getting the Canon 1Dc.

Sony's full-frame SLTs do better video at a lower price - if you can't be bothered to buy a video camera.
