And I'd recommend you go with the Canon

In all seriousness there is a big issue you're missing here - how does the camera feel to you. There is nothing worse than fumbling around with a camera that doesn't suit you well. Go to your local camera shop and handle both.

I did this for both the Nikon and Canon. I didn't really mind which I went for before hand, but the Canon felt far nicer in my hands. This was the clincher for me as the cameras were very close technically wise. Besides - I'd be the limitation for either of them, not the camera
