This thread has turned into an accumulation of fanboy comments defending Canon gear with side-track of which kind of gear certain well known photographers use. Guys, Mikael has some good points, and there is nothing wrong that he uses different sort of gear equipment. I am sure he bought Canon lenses at a time when Canon was leading the field - I would agree with this, at the time when Canon lead the FF field, I also bought most of my lenses.
Generally, I am convinced that those kind of threads with back-and forward going arguments in regard to the current lack of new FF sensors in Canon cameras will continue as long as no new Canon based consumer FF camera with high MP/high DR sensor is showing up for a competitive price.
As many pointed out above, you can manage with all kind of camera gear - but this is not the point also. This argumentation is often revealed by many Canon users as defensive argument for the lack of a camera with better sensor design (like \"the 5D MkIII is good enough if you expose properly\", \"more MP are unnecessary\" etc). Truth is - Nikon and Sony have something which Canon currently doesn\'t has, fact. If you like or need such camera with better sensor is another question.
