got a D90 looking for input

13 years 7 months ago #598 by aliasprophoto
I bought a used D90 with an 18-55 lens for $850 on craigslist and a Nikkor 50mm 1.4/D separately. I have been using it for about 4 months now, and the 50 stays on the camera 99% of the time. I love doing low light street photography. I am thinking of switching to Canon, just because I think it might be a better investment for me. I plan to do weddings in natural light sometime in the future. I know the D700 is a great camera but for some reason I’m more attracted to the 5D MK2. Also, I don’t think the Nikon has anything like the 85mm 1.2, and the 135mm 2.0 for canon is easier to find. Any input would be appreciated.

You know Nikon has a 85mm f1.4 which is a AMAZING lens! I'm a Canon guy too, so don't get me wrong. Either way Canon or Nikon, your in good hands.
