Re: photography buffs, help me buy a DSLR camera
DDY,
I just recently ordered a dSLR, also as a Xmas present. I had the same conundrum as you, but at a lower level (xt versus d40). I ended up ordering the xt. Most of the advice I was given came down to: they're both excellent cameras, and most of the differences between them are very nominal, therefore it all depends on how it feels in your hand. I did hear that Nikons (the d40 at least) aren't as good shooting in low light. Also, I heard that Canon lenses are better, but Nikon flashes are better, fwiw.
