Should I wait for Nikon D3200 release officially or buy the Canon 550D?

Nikon D3200 rumors seems pretty real, and yet the photo has been release... But I love Canon because it's popular and the strap looks nice, I'm considering about Canon 600D but i can't afford it, so choosing 550D ...I know my thinking is a little bit weird LOL!!!

It is official - Nikon's D3200 has been announced. If you look at the Nikon website, you will now find it listed, with sample photos, specifications, and MSRP pricing. And the major retailers; Amazon, Adorama, B&H, etc. are all accepting pre-orders.

The best estimate is that they will be shipping in 1-2 months.

So whether a D3200 is right for you or not depends on your time frame.

Yes, I agree that buying a camera by how the strap looks or how popular it is seems a bit unconventional (however, the Nikon D3100 is the best selling DSLR in the US).

Many photographers throw away the strap that comes with the camera anyway as they tend to be uncomfortable. Either an upgraded 3rd party strap or a Black Rapid style of sling strap is often the strap of choice. The camera manufacturers know this so they do not put a lot of effort into their straps.

Is it possible to download the camera required for this camera?

Alright, long story short, this is the camera I am buying, however, it looks like a cd-rom is required to be able to use it. (Installing something before my computer will read the camera's images or some such thing); however, my computer's disc tray is broken and I can not currently afford to fix it. Would it be possible to download the required programs for this camera anywhere or even from the official website. I have looked, and admittedly, it's late and I may have missed something, but it didn't look as though I could download the required software. And yes I saw the drivers/software tab on it. Just nothing to actually DOWNLOAD the program.

Ha, just noticed the silliness of the title. I look like a moron. Please disregard that.
@Looney: If you had payed any attention, rather than skimming, I did say it was late at night, AND that I saw the software/download area, HOWEVER, there was no DOWNLOAD button.

Answer
firstly you wont need the bloatware to use your camera as you can use windows programs to both download the pics and view them from the camera and they are built in already.

Second, just get someone else (or the shop) to download the program and copy into a USB stick. Use you this to transfer all that you (dont) need to your PC.

Good luck
