I've been into photography for a while now and I've been wanting a Camera for a really long time. I heard that Canon brand was a really good type to buy but I don't know anything about 7d 550d or any of the information.
I want a camera with good quality, many scence choices and zoom. Also good with videos.
Some pictures id like to try with my new camera

Answer
You mentioned DSLRs, but at the same time you talk about "scene choices" - that is very much a P&S concept. "Zoom" depends on the lenses you buy with it. If you get a DSLR, you need to really learn how to use it, it is NOT all about automatic settings like a little P&S.
If you want "scenes" and other cute stuff, don't bother getting a DSLR.
Do a lot more reading and learning before you go shopping, otherwise you'll regret your choices very soon.
If you really do want a DSLR, any of the entry level DSLRs would keep you happy for a few years. I'd pick either Canon or Nikon. I have a LOT of contact with other photographers and time and time again it seems that either one of those are most likely to make their owners happy.
The most important part is to buy only the best lenses - camera bodies get upgraded, lenses stay with us.
You WILL regret buying cheap lenses.
Don't rush into buying lenses. Start with a kit lens, get to know your camera, that lens, and all photographic principles.
Through time and through use, you will eventually KNOW what other lenses you'll need/want.
The more time you'll take, the less likely you are to regret your choices.
If you know anyone close to you with a camera, consider borrowing lenses and "picking their brain" about their camera and whatever else they know.
Go to a store and hold a few cameras, see how they feel to YOU.
Keep in mind that buying a DSLR isn't cheap, even if you find a good deal for body and kit lens.
You'll also want and/or need a few other things such as tripod, filters, a bag, sensor cleaning gear, a second battery, memory cards, perhaps a remote shutter release etc.
That's just the small stuff - I can guarantee you that you'll also want more and more lenses.
You'll also want a decent flash some day.
See how that list just goes on and on?
Owning a DSLR isn't cheap - at least not until you have built up a nice stash of gear.
Just some food for thought........
Do lots of research before you buy, and start learning about photography, too.
The very best thing you can do for your photography is to attend a class and read a few books and tutorials. Having some knowledge will make a huge difference to your images.
I hope I have expressed this idea clearly enough: YOU need to learn about photography because even the world's best camera will take lousy shots in the hands of someone who has no clue how to use it.

What kind of camera should I buy?

I am very interested in a photography and plan on buying a professional camera soon. I want one that can focus well and creates very detailed photographs. I know there are different lenses you can buy, but does anyone have a good suggestion to start with? Thanks
