after shooting with Nikon for nearly 6 years, I believe it is time to switch. I have had my eye on a Canon 5d Mark II for some time now, and I think it is time for the change. I would love to produce quality video along with my photos!
Interesting move.
Talking to a pro photographer friend of mine, he says that a lot of people fall into the trap of believing the photos from Canons are better, because they appear warmer, but this is apparently because Canons apply a little processing to the image when you take it, whereas the Nikons just capture the image exactly as it is, which supposedly is a better raw form to work with.
Personally I didn't like the one Nikon (D60) I tried out, but haven't played with Canons enough to compare as I use Sony and like them.
Canon certainly have the edge when it comes to video, you don't hear of anyone shooting HD video on Nikons, but Canons have been used widely right across the media from BBC documentaries to low budget films.
