[QUOTE="Dr Daniels, post: 48172, member: 9097"] What I like about that 5Dmk3 is the possibility to trigger strobes with its built-in radio transmitter, which justify the absence of this useless pop-up flash that I always have to raise on my D700 when I want to setup multiple strobes off-camera. However, this 5Dmk3 brings a bit of confusion as to whether the 1dX is really worth the investment over the cheaper and quite attractive 5D. I think Nikon has clearly differentiated the D800 over the D4. When it comes to compare Canon lenses over Nikon lenses, it's a bit of a hair splitting thingy really. Both are extremely good, but Nikon is generally more expensive on pro lenses. Then for sensors performance, DxOMark seems to rate Nikon's sensors a lot higher than Canon. Let see how the D800 and 5Dmk3 will perform in that test. Please look at this Camera Sensor Ratings for details: [URL="http://www.dxomark.com/index.php/Cameras/Camera-Sensor-Ratings"]DxOMark - Camera Sensor Ratings[/URL] (Canon's best DSLR only comes at 10th position, behind 4 Nikon DSLRs - the D700 having the same score as the 1Ds Mk3 / The Canon 5Dmk2 comes at 15th position, below the Nikon D5100!!!!) In Dynamic range, Canon sensors score pretty bad according to DXOMark. [/QUOTE]
