I just got a Nikon D60 for christmas and i hate it, i love the pictures and the size of the LED screen but i hate that it has no live view mode and i hate looking through the view finder....what is a comparable camera? is nikon or canon better?
well nikons best camera is the D3x which i feel is ugly looking.. there is the D90 which is an amazing camera with 12 something mega pixels and also has live view ... canon is good if you like automatic.. if you are going to get a canon i recommend something out of the EOS Rebel series but some of their Digital cameras have liek 15.5 megapixels and are around i think 1 grand?? a little much for only 15

Why?
Nikon and Canon flips the mirror up and use the sensor to record live view images. When it's in live view, the camera have two ways to focus:
It can use the normal phase detection focus which is fast (like how you look through the viewfinder), but it will need to flip the mirror back down and you'll get a black screen for a second, and it's ultimately slowed down.
Or it can use contrast based autofocus. It's accurate, focuses like a normal Digital camera, and it's very very very very slow, but you won't get black screen at least since the mirror doesn't flip back down.
Sony on the other hand, make the live view with a secondary image sensor in the viewfinder. The mirror is never flipped up, you still use the super fast phase detection autofocus, and you get live view.
Whether Sony is good or not is another matter, but no one can deny that Sony made the best live view system.
i like nikons better! they are friendlier to use. but they are BOTH good cameras. I own a nikon d5000. Its about $800 but it has live view, 16 preset functions, and shoots HD video! :) it has a good ISO thing also :) i would recommend it. i absolutely love it.
check out my flickr! im still an amateur photographer tho. lol I have pictures that I took with my nikon d5000
