Nikon are at the top of their game at the moment and if it pushes canon and drops the prices, those of us who prefer the way canon does certain things or canon lenses or whatever, we can only benefit.
No it isn\'t. It\'s a sign that people disagree because people have different priorities. For my work, the 5d3 is the best camera out there full stop. It\'s that simple. That includes the 1dx, which I tested. That\'s not to say it\'s perfect and the focus confirmation viewfinder issues were a huge error and I\'ve said that time and time again. I\'ve also said that they low ISO quality of shadows isn\'t fantastic and they should have worked on it. That doesn\'t stop it being the best out there *for me* though.
What you\'ve just effectively said is that people who disagree *with you* that Nikon are at the top of their game are disagreeing because they want to win an undefendable argument and they\'re defending because no one could have a different opinion to you. (I know you didn\'t say this is these words, but I think that\'s what you\'re effectively saying)
People are disagreeing ... because they disagree. It\'s not defence - it\'s a different opinion. If you\'re welcome to share your opinions, people are welcome to share theirs and point out whatever they believe
P.S You shouldn\'t bring the 50 1.4 into the discussion - it\'s a terrible lens If you manage to get a good 50 1.2, it\'s night and day.

That\'s a poor argument. They\'re disagreeing ... because they disagree. It\'s not defence - it\'s a different opinion. If you\'re welcome to share your opinions, people are welcome to share theirs and point out whatever they believe

Anyway... I\'m work avoiding now. Got to get on
