The whole business about poor low ISO DR performance is largely a forumtographer meme that is almost entirely irrelevant to real photography.
The entire digital photography camera market seems to be firing on all cylinders right now. A bunch of manufacturers are making really excellent cameras, lenses, and other gear - and not just Canon and Nikon at this point. We see very interesting and compelling developments in the rangefinder-style cameras as well, great stuff is happening in the MF format space, and more. Photographers today are more empowered by and less limited by their equipment than at any point in the history of the medium. It is a great time move beyond the forumtographer mode of searching for and fretting about this and that little difference in specs, to select a camera, and get on with the work of making compelling photographs using this gear.

Great post, Dan! Love the \"forumtographer\" moniker. He\'s posting this stuff on multiple forums. Clearly, very proud.
Three pages on this topic, so far, and not one actual photograph posted.
