Please ask photography professionals to answer in detail, you can get extra points!

1, although SX40 has excellent anti-shake, it is better to use a tripod for telephoto, and it doesn't matter if you don't pursue image quality ~ ~

2. If you mainly shoot the scenery with a camera, barefoot lens is more suitable! Telephoto is suitable for subjects such as portraits and humanities.

3. The color performance of Nikon and Canon is very different. As upstairs said, Nikon's color is sharper and the landscape effect is more conspicuous, while Canon's color is softer and the portrait is very delicate, while the landscape film does not have the impact of Nikon. But it is definitely not absolute. This is a matter of opinion, depending on your own aesthetics.

I am a landscape photographer personally, but I like Canon, and I prefer to use it barefoot. I like the scenery films made by Canon, which tend to be more natural and true.

5, even if the color is not very satisfactory, it is easy to make satisfactory adjustments in post-processing.

Therefore, between the two, it is recommended to consider more from your own point of view ~ ~
