Nikon D70s or Canon EOS350D Rebel XT

[JACeglarek]

I'm stuck deciding between these two cameras. They seem very similar in terms of capabilities, except that the Canon has better resolution (but 6 vs 8...I'm having trouble getting worked up over that for everyday use). I've used Canon film cameras in the past, but don't know how similar the AE-1 Program would be to the current cameras. Can anybody help by sharing some thoughts that might help me decide?

Thanks,

John
