Im planning to buy a digital camera.can you suggest what brand has the best quality. Canon or Sony?

i personally love all my canons and have always had great service and help from them. Also, when i was in photography and yearbook classes taking photographs we always used canons. hope that helps. also canons are really easy to learn to use

sony
hands down
best quality

Canon is the best!!!!

I'm a Canon fan.

Canon.

there is no such thing as best camera/brand its like asking whats the best brand of car, people will answer where their loyalties lay

personally i have both in DSLR form, the Canon is better and costs about 5 times more,

in compacts they are both good

be specific abouts models/type of cameras and the answers will be better

for consumer level cameras they are both good, at the pro level Canon better

Look at what all the pro photographers use at the football games, news events, or what the paparazzi shoot with. Canon. Also Sony has a propietary Memory Card that is expensive. Canon consumer cameras use SD cards which are easy to find and cheap.

Buy the camera that fits you best. Try each out in your hands and use the controls. Does it seem second-nature and easy?

The best camera is the one you will use, and not leave behind because it frustrates you.

By the way, if you plan to shoot professional football, by all means get a Canon DSLR. But in the consumer digital camera world, it's a tossup.

I love the Sony DSC R-1 as well as their Cybershot series. Excellent optics and powerful zooms.

The Canon A & SD series are wonderful, dependable and have great features.

Here's a review website with great information on several cameras from both.

Every major brand puts out excellent and not so excellent cameras. It depends on the model. You don't say how much you're spending.
For super zoom consider my camera Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H2. 6 megapixels, 12X optical zoom. Equally as good the Fuji S5200, and Canon S2 IS, and S3 IS.
For regular compact camera: Fuji E900, Fuji F30, Fuji F20.
Also Canon A640 or A630.
