    I had exactly the same dilemma two weeks ago. I chose the Nikon D5000 due to its price ($568) versus $700 for the T1i. My girlfriend bought the T1i and I would say it takes better pictures. The D5000 however has the flippable viewfinder thats great to have.

    If i were you, I'd base my decision on having more or less of a budget. Both are very good starter cameras. You also might want to try it out before you buy one (it helps you get a feel of which style you like).
