[QUOTE="Chris@sabor, post: 744801, member: 40915"] I'll admit it...I'm one of those never satisfied types. I have the D500 and a "pro" Nikon lens and I love the images it takes but I always want more. More frames per second, more resolution, silent shutter, even better autofocus. I'm not ashamed, people like me and probably you are what make the manufacturers innovate to keep us happy. Nikon seems to be slipping since the D500 and D850. Their financials are not good either, unfortunately. It's disheartening and has made me consider a break up. I considered Sony but, the ergonomics and until recently glass issues prevented serious consideration. Now, Canon has really stepped up! The EOS R5 has incredible specs, unbelievable animal eye AF, 12 FPS mechanical with 20 FPS electronic shutter and silent shooting. Full Frame with 45 MP which give it similar output to my D500 in when cropped. Much better video capabilities, especially autofocus. Compatible with all Canon lenses and third party EF lenses and some pretty cool new RF lenses like the 100-500. I truly love my D500 but I think mirrorless has finally truly exceeded the DSLR even for wildlife shooters. I think I'm going to make the switch to Canon mirrorless. I would love to stay with Nikon but the future seems to be uncertain and lagging behind instead of leading. I'd be interested in your opinion... [/QUOTE]
