Hi,
Is there any reason why you've left out canon, olympus, leica, minolta etc?
Canon 60D, EF-S 18-135, EF-S 55-250, EF 100mm f2.8 Macro, EF 50mm f1.8, Tokina 11-16, rokinon 8mm, Yongnuo 560ex

I think its not very smart to compare brands. You may like to compare particular models.
Moreover, I believe this poll belongs more to 'Digital SLR , DSLR Lens and Accessories' section.

thanks

The best brand as a professional photographer is the brand you project to the customer - i.e. YOU.

Neither they, nor you should be paying any attention to which camera you use. I mean, no one asks you which brand of shoes you're wearing right when you go for a shoot? They just expect photographs well above average and professionalism in the person they will be dealing with.

Having said all that:

1. Professional level equipment from Sony and Nikon is not going to vary wildly in terms of output required for a job.

2. I'd suggest you choose a more popular (widely available) brand not because of photographic reasons, but more to do with service support, cost and availability of future accessories and possibly an easier to sell item in the longer term.

just remember, every camera can take bad pictures.

First decide on kind of photography you wish to do, then choose body and lenses accordingly.

Sorry if I am ruffling any feathers here, but somehow the posting pattern and the subsequent answer looks artificial.

Sungandha may be. you need to post more often and content which looks human generated , just to prove you are not SEO / bot  of the website whose links you have posted in the poll.

This seems to be a very innovative marketing strategy to market the website... However this is not the correct forum for this...

Amit you got it right. It's a spammer as they are only selling two brands on their website. That's why the 2 brand poll.
No other reason why someone would not include Canon in the poll otherwise. Hahahaaha .... had to get that in sideways ;)

I'm surprised that a camera website needs to know consumer dslr preferences of nikon vs sony...looks like a low-cost fly-by-night operator :D
