I love reading Ken Rockwell's D800 bashing. Everytime I do I find how opposite what he says is from the truth of what the camera can do. He admits to not shooting RAW, and well, the D800 Raw files are way beyond anything my D700 was capable of. Ergonomics? I find it more comfortable.

I love when he talks about how its too hard to change settings on the D800. I don't have the new muscle memory on mine yet (only got it two weeks ago), and I still change stuff just as quickly as I have with any previous Nikon.

Ken Rockwell is not an idiot. He's just not a photographer.

Sorry to disagree... Ken is an idiot and not a photographer!

Define idiot:

id·i·ot [id-ee-uht] Show IPA

noun
1.
Informal . an utterly foolish or senseless person.
