    "buying a nikon instead of buying a canon is like buying a PC instead of a MAC"

    Dumbest comment I've heard so far this year.

    Nikon and Canon constantly leapfrog each other. Canon has been beating Nikon in video for 2-3 years, Nikon has been beating Canon in ISO performance for the same period. Right now, especially for studio work, the D800 smokes the MKII - not to mention the autofocus on Canon gear is horrific in comparison. Unless you pre-ordered a D800 though, you won't have one soon. And the MKIII is surely on the way.

    The truth: Canon and Nikon are both genius. Buying outside of those two systems, unless you really know what you want (like micro 4/3), is foolish - and domacle is obviously clueless.
