I nearly went Nikon when I heard about the 5d3 / 1dx viewfinder issues, but I realised that what was important to me was the lenses (50mm 1.2 especially) and the colours and white balance choice, both of which *I* consider to be in advance of what I get out of a Nikon (my assistant uses a D3s & D4 so I know them well).
These are things which Dxo etc... can\'t measure, but they are more important to me than the Dxo measurements and a quarter stop of this here and there. I know this is a somewhat unpopular view, but I don\'t really care
(Fortunately the 5d3 focus system is SO good that I\'ve found I don\'t need confirmation all the time. If it wasn\'t for that I may have had to switch. Still I hope it\'s something they fix with the next camera.)
