I think you can get beautiful pictures with any of them. I use a Nikon D80, but I have seen beautiful photos from E-volt and Canon as well. I do think it comes down really to price and/or the feature set you want most. Because in the end I think image quality is going to be good on any of them and dependent on the user's knowledge of photography in general and how best to use the camera. I know I haven't scratched the surface of all the ins and outs of my camera and photography. I just have had too much chaos going on with me.
