Many professionals will own both Canon and Nikon cameras over the lifetime of their career, for many different reasons. Personally I recommend buying whatever camera brand has the best price special at the time of purchasing. Especially if you already own third party photo editing software.
Why should you buy a Nikon? Those wanting a starter kit that includes a camera body + 1 or 2 good quality lenses that they won’t need to upgrade any time soon. Keep in mind you will need to purchase photo editing software for post production needs.
Why should you buy a Canon? Canon offers a wider range of lenses down the track to suit a variety of budgets. It also comes with photo editing software. This software can be a great learning curve for beginners as it allows them to import an image and change the exposure settings (amongst others) after you have taken the shot. You don’t need to worry about making the right choice in camera as you can change it later on in post processing.
