RG did a nice job of giving just enough praise to make his review seem unbiased.
He included the negative to keep himself in the headlines so to speak.
If RG were to give a Phenomenal review to the 1d IV, the following would\'ve happened..
1. Nikon most likely pulls all their advertising from his site. Affecting his pocketbook.
2. Nikon cuts off the \'free\' lenses given to RG
3. It takes RG out of the spotlight. His site looses 90% of it\'s hits, because he\'s not relevant anymore
4. RG is broke, has no more free Nikon \'perks\', and his site is back into oblivion as it was before the mark III review.
His review is obviously a carefully orchestrated promotional money-maker! Just look at all the forums linking to his review. If he gave a positive review, this would be a 1 page thread.
Considering RG\'s notoriety is tied to how extensively he has cataloged his distaste for the 1D3, I would not doubt this.
