I didn\'t switch, but I ceased my exploration into Nikon system, while still maintaining my Canon gear. After a couple years, I threw in the towel. My second Nikon dual-ownership -- first was in film era.
1) In-camera processing, even of the RAW, resulted over-cooked, unnatural colors; 1A) extreme exposures inaccuracy (up to +2 stops over-exposed) in contrasty outdoor lighting
2) Inaccurate focusing with center AF \"point\" (more of a small cloud) on D7000 which picks up any contrasty area outside the box
3) All controls annoyingly backwards! And the menu system sucks -- Canon more intuitive and better manuals (example: Picture Styles? No, it\'s like \"Mode\" or some such!)
4) Very difficult to use Alt lenses -- Canon flange distance is much more useful
I prefer Canon in-camera processing (Digic), tech support and CPS, owner\'s manual and on-line documentation, ergonomics, and lenses.
