Should i switch to canon from Nikon?

Both the brands are made for cameras,
Actually there's no necessity to switch from it.
IF you are using a camera like mine you never think of it

What camera are you using at the moment? You aren't going to gain a great deal. Sure the Nikons have better sensors and low light performance, but in the general run of things you're unlikely to see any difference apart from a hole in your finances

I'm a big Nikon fan and I've used them for years, but I would say no, unless you are changing to a different camera type or format.

If you are changing from compact to DSLR then fine, re-assess whether you want to go for Canon, Nikon, Pentax or Sony. If you are trading up from APS-C/DX sized DSLRs to full frame and don't have any full-frame lenses then again, fine. You would need to replace all of the kit then anyway, so why not get the best camera for you?

But if you are just thinking of changing from a crop-frame Canon DSLR to a crop-frame Nikon DSLR, I would say don't do it. There's no significant performance or quality difference between the two systems and you will have to pay new for everything.

The quality of image comes largely down to sensor size and lens quality. Both Canon and Nikon produce excellent lenses, beyond the resolution of most of their cameras and if you are sticking to the same sensor size you won't see large differences between the two.

Even if there was as much as 10% difference in image quality, you aren't going to see a 10% difference. You might notice a 30% or larger improvement, but you would need to go for a larger sensor to get that much difference.

Nikon APS sensors are indeed larger than Canon APS sensors. That means for the present, as well as the future growth in technology, Canon will always be below Nikon.

However, while there's a clear measurable advantage of Nikon sensors in this regard, whether it is a significant difference can be argued.

If you're referring to a DSLR then, in my opinion, absolutely not. Nikon has the most extensive backwards lens compatibility of all brands although Pentax is a close second. Canon abandoned their legacy FD/FL lens mount in 1988 when they introduced their AF 35mm SLR cameras, the EOS Rebel line, in favor of the EF lens mount. To further complicate matters, Canon has two lens lines - the lenses using the EF-S designation and the pro quality lenses that use the EF designation. Although an EF lens can be used on a Canon crop-sensor DSLR such as the T3, T4i, T5i, SL1, 60D an EF-S lens Can't be used on a Canon full-frame DSLR such as the 6D, 5D and 1D. Nikon also has two lens lines - designated "DX" for their crop-sensor DSLR cameras and "FX" for their full-frame DSLR cameras. However, the MAJOR difference is that a Nikon "DX" lens CAN be used on a Nikon full-frame DSLR because the camera will automatically "crop" the full-frame sensor to the size of the crop sensor. Yes, you lose some of the resolution of the full-frame but at least you can use any Nikon lens on either a crop sensor or full-frame sensor DSLR.

Of course if you're currently using a Nikon point & shoot or bridge camera all of the above is moot - unless you have access to a bag full of older manual focus Nikon lenses or just find the stupidity of Canon's EF-S lenses being incompatible with their full-frame DSLR cameras ridiculous.

Only if you're Really stupid.

I've known users (believe me, never photographers) who bankrupted themselves exchanging perfectly good Sony/Pentax/Olympus DSLRs - which weren't producing satisfactory results - for Canon or Nikon.

Their results still sucked, not because their cameras were bad, but because they were lousy photographers. The best camera in the world will produce lousy results, if you can't be bothered to spend the time learning how to use it properly.
