I am interested in eventually starting a photography business. I have not purchased an SLR before, but both the Canon and Nikon have been suggested by multiple friends. People seem to be loyal to one over the other, but cannot tell my why (cannot compare the two). The cameras that I am trying to compare are the
Nikon D3000
Nikon D5000
Canon T1i
Canon T2i

I want to know which is the best of the four options in terms of quality pictures (I am not concerned about price if the pictures are substantially better). I also find that there are times when companies will offer an “updated” camera that is still very similar to the one previous.

This also means (full size sensor) that the focal length of the lens is comparable to the equivalent on a 35mm film camera. Whereas with an image sensor that is smaller the focal length of the lens increases. For example a slightly wide angle lens will act like a standard lens if the image sensor is smaller than full size.

Worth considering if you want wide angle/fisheye type effects – the full size sensor will enable this more easily.

Full frame Digital Cameras just have a Sensor that has an image sensor the same size as the film plane in a 35 mm Camera.

I think you're right that the retro controls are appealing, and that's probably mainly why the price is so high. You can get a lot more with the Nikon D5000 or Canon T2i, even for less. Plus they can shut HD clips.
