I need help in choosing a new camera

[wiigirl]

For a single lens, I would go with a wide-ish zoom. Something like a 17-55mm. To make it suitable for dark conditions, I would also go with a zoom offering an aperture of f2.8. This will let a lot of light in, and will give you good flexibility after dark.

That is a very flexible lens that will cover most shooting situations.

Super advice...the lens makes the camera.

What are all of your opinions between the Nikon D3200 ot the Canon T4i. I know a lot of you use a camera with around 18mp does the 24mp make a huge difference? I keep reading mixed reviews, most people say that it is the photographer that makes the shot not always necessarily the camera.
