What is the Nikon equivalent to the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS?

I prefer Nikon's over Canons, but I really love the quality of the Canon Rebel. And I was wondering if there was a Nikon with similar quality and features.

Look at a Nikon D3000.

D5000, http://www.nikonusa.com/...D5000.html

I would consider Nikon D7000 16.2MP DX-Format CMOS Digital SLR
*High Resolution 16.2 MP DX-format CMOS sensor
*Body only; lenses sold separately
*High Speed 6 frames per second continuous shooting up to 100 shots
*Breathtaking Full 1080p HD Movies with Full Time Autofocus

Any nikon DSLR will do.

That would be the D3000. But it has no Live View and no AF motor, so not all lenses will auto focus.

So the XS is much better.

Here's a post called 'Buying a DSLR, what's important, megapixels, features, brand, price, quality and which one to buy - http://www.the-dslr-photographer.com/2009/03/which-dslr-to-buy.html

Good luck! The site has many more tuorials, tips, reviews and guides!

I agree the Canon Rebel is better!
