The difference is so insignificant that there is no real world advantage/disadvantage to either. Full frame would be a different story though. | |

The Nikon DX sensor is 16mm x 24mm, while the Canon APS-C sensor is slightly smaller at 14.8mm x 22.2mm. For the same 18-55mm focal length range, the Nikon will be slightly wider (effectively) at the 18mm range than the Canon, and at 55mm, the Canon will be effectively longer than the Nikon. This is not a statement about the camera quality, just about the 35mm-equivalent focal lengths available when using the kit lens. | |
