Does the Canon Rebel XSi shoot video?

I am about to purchase the Canon Rebel XSi and I was wondering if it had capabilities to shoot video? Also, does the Nikon D3000 have the capabilities to shoot video?

No, Both Canon XSi and Nikon D3000 can not take video. If you want Digital SLR camera which can take video you should go with Nikon D5000 , Canon Rebel T1i or Nikon D90

Neither of these models do but the very next models in their respective lines do offer video. For Canon, it's the Rebel T1i. For Nikon, it's the D5000. B&H Photo, one of the most popular online retailers for photographers, sells each for about $750 with an 18-55mm, image stabilized kit lens. Here are links to each:

Neither of these cameras is clearly better than the other in all area. If someone tells you that, they are loyal to that particular brand. I currently shoot Canon and have no intention of changing. However; I would shoot Nikon without hesitation. Ideally, you should try them both and go with the one that is easiest to use for you. If you find the two are equal in this regard you might have to start thinking much further down the line and think about what lenses you want. Canon and Nikon offer parity in most cases in this regard but sometimes one may offers something other other doesn't. For example, both offer 24-70mm f/2.8 zoom lenses but Nikon doesn't have a direct equivalent to Canon's 24-105mm f/4L. Nikon lenses are also sometimes a bit more expensive than Canon but, this isn't always the case.
