    Bang for the buck??? *Comparison*

    My wife and I are going to have our first child and we're looking for a camera that can take good pics and video for long lasting memories.

    We are trying to judge between these two cameras, we can get a nice discount on either one. Which one is better for the money? FYI we really want a tripod so if you choose the Canon do you know where we can get one that's compatible?

    THANKS IN ADVANCE

    Canon EOS Rebel T3 12MP Digital SLR Camera ShopNBC.com

    OR

    Fujifilm FinePix 16MP CMOS Black Digital Camera Kit w/ Case, Tripod and 8GB SDHC Card ShopNBC.com

    p.s. when I was in 2nd grade I told the class I was going to be a wildlife photographer. I'm 26 now and I've NEVER owned a camera. Excited to finally explore picture taking.

    Congratulations on the impending arrival.

    My money would go to the Canon T3. My wife loves hers. Interchangeable lenses gives you room to grow as your interest in photography changes.

    I just checked Walmart, T3 bundle for $479.
