I had a Canon Rebel T3i and now bought a D600 and a Nikkor 85mm 1.8G. I'm very happy with the camera and the lens and am considering buying another $ 3000 on Nikkor lenses in the coming months. However, I am very afraid to regret later and want to sell everything to change to Canon again. I see many photographers switched to Canon in recent years and I wonder why.

The people here which is Canon and Nikon shooters and prefer Nikon, what makes you prefer Nikon?

Pick one and stick with it. Too expensive to keep switching. You can't go wrong with either one.

Since the early 70's I've always lusted after Nikon but could never afford it. When things went digital and the D70 came out and I decided to get back into photography, I was able to buy whatever I wanted so I finally got my Nikons and couldn't be happier.
