I'm considering the Nikon D5100 after not being able to afford the Canon T4i.
I read online some people complaining about the D5100's AF point and how it's "disgusting", and that it only has one cross-type focus point?
How much of a difference is having 1 vs 9 cross type focus points? Is it just that it's easier to use, or does it produce a better image?
Added (1). Also.are these Nikon D5100 VS Canon 60D images accurate?

In those images the 60D ones look really bad compared to the D5100, especially the color and contrast of the ocean. Are they accurate or was it just the person using it that messed up?
Added (2). Sorry I forgot ONE more thing!:
Can the human eye detect this difference in the screen resolution?
1, 040k dots vs 920k dots
The website I got that info from states that the 1, 040k dots resolution screen makes it easier to tell if the image is accurately focused.
