What camera brand do you shoot?

When I was at FIFA game few weeks ago, I seen so many ppl shoot Canon (white lens). Are they better?

There were probably a similar number with black lenses, Nikon. Both used by professional photographers and they wouldn't be used if they weren't any good.

I use Canon and have 2 white lenses (70-200f4L, 70-300f4-5.6L) but not what those photographers use - lenses with f2.8 after their name and lots of $$$ on the price.

Yes of course

Yes, the white lenses of Canon lenses can easily be spotted. Not so with the Nikon cameras which use black lenses.

My experience has bee that when on the sidelines, I see about an equal number of Nikon and Canon shooters. Most of the Nikon shooters own their own gear and most of the Canon shooters have their equipment supplied by their employers. This is a general rule, but pretty accurate.

I have four colleagues that I shoot with from time to time, each of us shooting for different newspapers or sports agencies. Three of us use Nikon gear and the other Canon. One of my colleagues used to shoot with Canon gear but switched when Nikon loaned him some Nikon D3 camera and all the lenses that matched what he had in his Canon kit.

After six months of using Nikon gear, he made the switch. He maintained that the Nikon D3 produces less noise than his Canon 1Ds, Mark III (two of them), and that the 24-70 mm and 70-200 mm focused quicker and more accurately than his Canon EF lenses of the same focal length. That was over six years ago and he has been able to sell his Canon gear to Canon shooters over that time. The only Canon lens he still has is the 400 mm f/2.8 and a Canon T2i.

What I'm trying to say is that only YOU can determine which camera system works best for you. Take your time so that you do not buy the wrong system and spend more money buying what you really needed in the first place. This happens more than you know.

Buying the most "popular" camera system is what most people do when they first decide to take up photography.

Instead, visit the Nikon and Canon websites and read all you can about those systems until you understand their strengths and limitations.

Next visit DP Review and read the professional reviews on the cameras that interest you.

When you have a good understanding of one or more cameras, visit DXOmark and compare the sensor performance of their sensors.

And finally, visit a proper camera shop a few times and hold each of your choices in your hands and sort of "speed date" them.

In the end, it is your money, so spend it wisely

Yes they are. The white lenses are very long, very crisp and sharp and very, very expensive. That's why the professionals, either working for a magazine, news paper or independent can afford that kind of gear. The average hobbyist can't raise that kind of money. If you've a few thousand floating around, take a peek at such lenses from Canon.

I use Canon because I basically beat to death several of their point and shoots for a long time. When I switched to a DSLR I stuck with a brand that had been reliable for me.
My friend is a big Nikon fan. He says he is jealous of Canon users because there are more lense choices. That may be techincally true in terms of sheer numbers. But I have never seen a 3rd party lense that was only offered in Canon EF. It's just that Canon has a ton of lenses that they make.
One thing I will say for Canon is that all of their lenses are good. Some are just 'more good'. I'm sure most of us have bought one of the nifty 50 lenses and been blown away about how useful it is for the price of an accessory. I don't like how limited even the biggest Canons are for Video. It is obviously an artificial product segmentation ploy, so they can sell you a C100 or C200 in lieu of your T5i or 5D.
Of the Nikons I've played with I like their lenses a lot. Even the entry level ones seem to mean business. I don't like the douchey red swoop on the camera body.

Are what better than what?
Are canon better? Well, no. They are very good but Nikon are their equal and probably many other brands these days. It's just that Canon and Nikon have the "professional" market virtually to themselves.
Are white lenses better? Yes, they are canon's L series which are top of the range (and expensive!)

Fhotoace you're full of it! What an absolute crock!
