Which camera would you keep Nikon D7100 or Canon 70D?

If you had the Nikon D7100 and the Canon 70D and you had to keep one, which would you keep? I have several lens for both cameras, but I can only keep 1 camera. If you were in my situation, which would you keep and why?

    I've not used either one, but on paper the D7100 appears to be slightly better.

    If you would like to use both Canon and Nikon lenses, then keep the 70D since it can use Nikon lenses via a lens adapter. You can't adapt Canon lenses to Nikon.

    If you're the type of person who would use a 70-200 f/2.8, then keep the Canon because they have the best 70-200 f/2.8 on the market.

    Canon has a few unique lenses like their 8-15 fisheye zoom, their new 11-24mm, 50 f/1.0 and their 85 f/1.2L. Remember, you're not only giving up the body, you're giving up the entire system. Don't look at just which one of the two bodies is best for your needs. You need to consider the entire system from both brands. One may be better than the other depending upon your needs.

    Keep the Nikon. It's got better resolution, more auto focus points and many vintage Nikkor lenses out there that will work with it.

    You have them. Do you like one better than the other?

    I have a 70D and am very happy with it.
