It's very confusing, but here's what I've learned (not much so far, but I'll keep adding!)

Which camera would you recommend? 

Nikon vs. Canon, please vote.

I used to sell cameras for about 7 years, and my choice is Canon. Canon is typically more user friendly. Canon's optics are a higher grade (we did side by side tests). Canon gives certain features on their low end models that you can only get on Nikon's top end models. Canon is the one!

I recommend the Pentax K10D. It has more features than comparably priced Canon or Nikons. For example, it is the only DSLR that I know of that has an ISO priority mode which is great for shooting in low light without a tripod. Moisture and dust resistant, too. A great camera!
