Verdict
Pick the Canon EOS 400D if you prioritize higher resolution and a slightly faster burst rate for a minimal price difference. The Nikon D50 stays the better choice if you prefer to save a couple of euros and can compromise on megapixels and continuous shooting speed. Both are equally matched in sensor format, body type, and lack of stabilization.
