I laugh at posts like these. I use both Canon and Nikon and I have used my Nikons primarily over the canon because of the much better continous focus. In one shot Canon is quicker but shooting sports, and moving subjects Nikon has been better. My camera rarely if ever is in one shot mode. DLoyd complains non stop about the f1.4 glass inability to focus accurately at mid to long distances when shooting landscapes wide open this may be the case for him but to the normal shooter who is stoping down or using there f1.4 lenses for portraits this is not the case. Although the canon 85 in my opinion is way better then the Nikon could ever be. My primary camera is now the D800 but with years of shooting the 1dsmkII 5dmkII, D3x, D3s I can honestly say the D800 betters each of these in everyway except build quality and high ISO d3s. I have not tried the 5dmk III so i cannot comment on it as of yet. I am however looking forward to adding on to my bag eventually. No substitution for the cann 85 and 135.
